Private letters are a chargeable service. Patients will need to pay before we are able to produce the letter. Letters start from £20 dependant on the request. Please pay at reception and we will advise you of the exact amount to pay. 

It can take a minimum of 28 days to process private letter request as priority must be given to NHS work. 

The practice has a primary duty to provide services for the management of patients who are ill. Writing letters and reports (i.e. for insurance providers, adoption and fostering, driving (DVLA), housing and benefit appeals, schools, health clubs and employers) all falls outside of the NHS GP contract. When medical reports are provided they are a private service and as such, have to be completed in the GP’s own time outside of their paid NHS working hours. These services incur a fee and we set our fees with reference to the British Medical Association guidance on private fees.
