Riverside Medical Practice
Non NHS Private Fees
Private (non-NHS) Services
The NHS does not pay for some of the services we provide. These include private sickness certificates, insurance forms, holiday cancellation forms, medical reports, fitness to travel certificates, private prescriptions and certain travel vaccinations (e.g. Hep B) The table below shows our fees for these services.
If you are booking a private medical please tell the receptionist when booking so that a longer appointment can be allocated. Some medicals will need to be carried out by a GP other than your own.
Prices valid as of 15 June 2023. Please phone the surgery to confirm prices.
