MEASLES / MENINGITIS (01 April 2026)

Infection Control: Due to the current measles outbreak in Enfield, and the Meningitis situation, if you need to make an appointment with a GP for any rashes / suspected measles or meningitis, please do not attend Surgery in the first instance.  Instead, please call us first and explain your symptoms to our Receptionists, who will arrange a telephone appointment for you to speak to a GP. 

Resident Doctors’ Strike

A Resident Doctors’ Strike is set to take place from 07 to 13 April 2026 amid ongoing disputes over pay and working conditions.

There is a risk that this action will disrupt patient care, however, GP Surgeries and Emergency Departments (A&E) will remain open during this period.

For more information, please contact: Choose the right NHS service for you and your family during doctors’ strikes

Sick (fit) notes

If you’ve been off sick for more than 7 days

To request a sick note:

If you’ve been off sick for 7 days or less

If you’re off work sick for 7 days or less, your employer should not ask for medical evidence that you’ve been ill. Instead, they can ask you to confirm that you’ve been ill. You can do this by filling in a form yourself when you return to work. We call this self-certification.

Find out more about sick notes on the NHS website.
