Fees for Non NHS Services
If a patient requests a letter or report from their GP, this falls outside NHS funded services and is therefore subject to a fee. The doctor completes this work in addition to their normal NHS duties, often outside their regular working hours.
While the letter itself may be relatively brief, the charge reflects the time required for the doctor to review the patients medical records, ensure the information provided is accurate and appropriate, and apply their professional expertise and signature.
Letter - £40 - £70
Private healthcare claim form £85
Insurance claim report - £85 - £100
Shotgun application/Renewal - £100
POA (per person) - £175
POA/Guardianship including home visit - £250
*Please note NHS work takes priority. All Non-NHS requests can take up to 30 working days to complete.
*All payments are to be made at Reception. Payments are accepted in cash or by cheque.

Vaccinations
Grampian Vaccination and Immunisation Programme Update January 2025
The new Grampian Travel Health Service delivered by the health board will go live on 3rd February 2025. Like the previous offer it combines a nationally provided website as the primary source of information for citizens backed up by signposting and an assessment and vaccination offer for those requiring specialist advice or the 4 vaccinations provided free by the NHS for travel purposes – Hepatitis A, cholera, typhoid and diphtheria, tetanus and polio. As the risks of diseases like measles and rubella are higher outside the UK, travellers are asked whether their routine vaccinations are up to date prior to travelling. Information about how to use the new service is available on the Travel Vaccination | Vax Grampian website now.
