This may be required if you have a chronic health condition, have had recent surgery, are in late pregnancy, or are travelling with medical equipment. Our GP can assess your fitness to fly and issue a signed letter promptly — often on the same day as your appointment. Issued same-day Most fit-to-fly letters can be issued on the day of your consultation. Telephone consultations are often sufficient.

Same-day in most cases Emailed directly to you or third party on request Urgent letters — call or WhatsApp us Back to top Common questions Frequently asked questions Answers to the most common questions about medicals and medical certificates at OUR GP. Medical documentation from a private GP is unfamiliar territory for many patients — questions about validity, turnaround, cost, and what’s needed are completely normal. If your question isn’t answered here, please get in touch before booking and we’ll be happy to advise. Are letters from a private GP legally valid? Yes. Medical letters and certificates issued by a GMC-registered GP carry the same legal validity regardless of whether that GP works privately or for the NHS. All documentation from OUR GP is issued on clinic letterhead with the doctor’s full name and GMC registration number. It is accepted by employers, courts, insurers, universities, government agencies, and the DVLA. How quickly can I get my certificate or letter? In most cases, documentation is issued on the same day as your consultation. For fit notes and simple letters, a brief telephone or video consultation is often sufficient and turnaround can be very fast. More complex documents — such as detailed legal or insurance reports — may require a face-to-face appointment and a short drafting period, but we aim to provide these within 24–48 hours of the consultation. Do I need to have been a patient at OUR GP before? No. You do not need to have seen us before. A brief consultation is required before any certificate or letter is issued — this allows the GP to take a short history, confirm the clinical basis for the documentation, and sign it appropriately. There is no registration requirement and no need to bring a referral from your NHS GP. Will my NHS GP be told about the medical? No — by default, we do not inform your NHS GP about consultations or documentation issued at OUR GP. If you would like us to send a copy of a letter or medical certificate to your NHS GP or another party, we can do so at your request. Your consultation and any documentation produced are private and confidential. What do I need to bring to a D4 DVLA medical? Please bring your current driving licence, your glasses or contact lenses if you use them for driving, a list of any current medications and their doses, and the D4 form if the DVLA has already sent one to you. If you have not yet received a D4 form, we can provide the standard version. The examination takes approximately 45 minutes and the completed form is given to you at the end to send to the DVLA. My airline is asking for a fit-to-fly letter — how quickly can you provide one? In most cases, a fit-to-fly letter can be issued on the same day as your consultation. If you have an urgent requirement — for example, travelling within 24–48 hours — please contact us directly by phone or WhatsApp rather than booking online, and we will do our best to accommodate your timeline. A brief consultation (telephone or face-to-face depending on the nature of your condition) is required before the letter can be signed.
