These are sometimes requested for extreme sports such as ultra marathons. According to the British Medical Association (BMA), “even if a thorough history, examination and any necessary investigations are carried out, doctors are still not in a position to guarantee that a patient is fit for a particular activity”. As a result, we are unable to sign or provide these certificates. We would recommend you seek a specialist private GP to complete these forms for you.
We understand that this decision may cause inconvenience to some of our patients. However, our primary responsibility is to ensure the safety and well-being of all our patients. We believe this decision aligns with that responsibility and the BMA guidance.
