Question about Knightsbridge Medical

[Adam&Allison 128]

Hey all,

So I've got a question. I got my GP summary today and there's an entry in there from 2012 or 2013 saying 'referred to psychology services' - I remember what this was, I was feeling anxious so went to the GP about it - who suggested I look into it. I never did and I'm fine. What should I do about this for my medical?

Thanks

You don't need to take a health summary from your GP to the medical, if you have any ongoing conditions it is advised to take a doctors letter detailing the condition and ongoing treatment but other than that all you have to take is proof of vaccinations

If you are going to take the summary just get your GP to write a brief note to say what your issues were and that you are not a risk to yourself or others

Have you had your medical yet?

On the email from Knightsbridge it does request you take a summary from your doctor...

This is almost misinforming people and its annoying. As Trudi said this is not required unless you have or have had an ongoing condition or illness and were treated for.

Also if you haven't had your medical yet, be sure all your vaccines are in date! this caught me out. I had all my injections but turns out where the doctor tells you the tetanus lasts for life, IT DOESN'T in the USA It needs to be within 10 years!

If you are missing any vaccines please please please get them done at Knightsbridge otherwise you will regret it.

Good luck for the future!

I thought you could get the vaccines in the US?

You can get get them in the US but you will have to pay for the US civil surgeon to write it up again. It will cost a few Bob. Get it done in the UK very latest at knightsbridge
