Garstang Medical Practice are not able to provide Pilot licence medical assessments or GP letters for the participation in extreme sports such as marathons, diving, sky-diving, parachuting, bungee jumping etc.
This is a private service and is above the standard NHS requirements for our practice, therefore our GPs have collectively decided that we can unfortunately no longer provide this service to our patients due to the medical legal implications and risk involved. Should a GP make the incorrect decision regarding a patient’s health/ability to fulfil what is required for a pilot licence/extreme sport, the GP in question would not be covered by medical indemnity.
