“Appointment was for 11:45 and I wasn’t seen until 13:35. Apart from that all staff were pleasant and the Dr. I saw was extremely nice - she apologised for the long wait and explained that the time slots she was given to see people were not long enough to conduct a proper medical. I tended to agree with her and couldn’t fault the medical she provided. She was one of the most amicable and empathetic Doctors I’ve seen.”

“Booking the medical was fine but the medical itself was another thing was told i needed to take a recent opticians prescription wasnt even looked at and its been reported of conditions i dont even have or have had. due to this my own gp is now having to do a report.”

Hi Diane, We advise this as good practice, however, depending on the medical you have this may not be necessary. DVLA tend to follow up with a patients GP if more information is required. Please rest assured that your paperwork was filled out correctly.
