The Hicks Group Practice

Non-urgent advice: Our Vision

Here at the Hicks Group Practice, we believe our staff and patients should be treated with dignity, respect and care.

We provide everyone with a safe, caring and welcoming healthcare service for our community.

111 is the NHS non-emergency number. It’s fast, easy and free. Call 111 and speak to a highly trained adviser, supported by healthcare professionals. They will ask you a series of questions to assess your symptoms and immediately direct you to the best medical care for you.

NHS 111 is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Calls are free from landlines and mobile phones.

In case of a life threatening emergency, please dial 999

To renew a sick note (fit note) / Med 3 please contact the reception team on 01480 453038 / 01480 455331.

The reception team will then send you a questionnaire for completion to your mobile number. Once this questionnaire has been completed, the GP will be able to process your request.

Please note, that sick notes (fit notes) / Med 3s cannot be issued until your original one has expired.

If you are requesting a sick note before your original has expired, you can still complete the questionnaire, but the GP will not issue until the appropriate date.
