All Services
POD Service
The surgery pod is a machine which enables patients to measure their own vital signs including weight and blood pressure.
This service can also be used for the following: Contraceptive pill checks, new patient registrations, BMI Checks and NHS health checks.
MDT Meetings
For patients with complex medical, social and psychological needs we participate in a fortnightly meeting to discuss their issues with social workers, community matrons and other healthcare workers.
The benefit of this service is that it may allow patients to receive medical or social care in a speedier fashion with better coordination.
We only discuss patients if we have their consent.
Non-NHS services
Non-NHS Work
The NHS does not pay for some of the services we provide; these include private sick notes, insurance forms, holiday cancellation forms, medical reports, fitness to travel certificates, private prescriptions and some vaccination services.
Our fees for these services are displayed in the surgery.
Medical reports / GP letters protocol
This is not NHS work. A fee will be payable.
This applies to housing letters, DSS letters on PIP/ESA or other claims, student deferments due to sickness, certificates of fitness (for marathons, flying other activities etc), taxi and HGV medicals, DVLA assessments, criminal injury compensation board claims, insurance medicals and others.
DO NOT BOOK AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE GP
Provide a written request to reception. You may also email your request to stroudgreenreception@nhs.net. Provide as much information as possible including any relevant dates.
A member of our reception team will then contact you back on the next steps. That person will advise you what the fee is, and whether or not you will need an appointment with the GP.
The GP may not be able to assist you with your request. If that is the case, we may advise you to see a private doctor or other specialist. We will provide you with a brief medical summary. This will help them complete the report/form for you.
