I need help today

If symptoms are severe or life-threatening, call 999. If urgent but not life-threatening and the practice is closed, use NHS 111. If it is GP-suitable and the surgery is open, use the official online route, phone or reception.

I need a routine appointment

Use the official appointment route. Explain the main problem, when it started, what has changed, what you have tried and whether you need a GP, nurse or another clinician.

I need repeat medicine

Do not phone for routine prescription requests. Use NHS App, SystmOnline, online medication form or the official prescription route.

I need test results

Check online services or ask the practice after enough time has passed. If a hospital ordered the test, the hospital team may be the right contact.

I need a sick note

Use the official sick/fit note route. Do not use emergency appointment slots only for fit-note admin.

I am not sure who to see

Use the “Who do I see?” logic: pharmacist, nurse, HCA, GP, urgent treatment centre, NHS 111 or 999 depending on the problem.

Sick notes, fit notes and work letters

Leacroft Medical Practice provides a sick/fit note route on its official site. Patients often need this for employers, but emergency or urgent appointment slots should not be used only for fit-note admin.

1

Check self-certification first

Your employer may not need a GP fit note for the first part of sickness absence. Ask what evidence is needed.

2

Give clear dates

Say when illness started, whether you are still off work and whether a clinician or hospital has already seen you.

3

Use the right route

Use the official fit-note request route, not emergency appointments, unless you also need urgent medical assessment.

4

Hospital care may need hospital paperwork

If hospital treated you, ask whether the hospital team should issue a discharge letter or note.

Referrals and hospital appointment tracking

The official referrals page lists local hospital and referral support details. It says the NHS Crawley CCG Referral Support Service aims to manage initial appointment booking, speak with the hospital trust on your behalf and provide one point of contact for appointment queries.
