Patient Notice – Friday 16 October

Please be aware of possible delays to appointments today

Due to the closure of the Orwell Bridge following an accident, we anticipate that clinics may not run to schedule today, Friday 16 October. Both staff and patients may experience delays in reaching the practice.

We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience and understanding.

If you have an appointment today, please allow extra time for your journey. If possible, you may wish to consider walking to the practice if this is a suitable option for you.

If you need to cancel your appointment, please call the surgery, select option 1, and leave a voicemail. A member of our team will then cancel your appointment. Alternatively, you can send a cancellation message via AskMyGP.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Sick (fit) notes

If you’ve been off sick for more than 7 days

To request a sick note:

  • fill out a sick note request form via AskmyGP.

If you’ve been off sick for 7 days or less

If you’re off work sick for 7 days or less, your employer should not ask for medical evidence that you’ve been ill. Instead, they can ask you to confirm that you’ve been ill. You can do this by filling in a form yourself when you return to work. We call this self-certification.

Find out more about sick notes on the NHS website.
