Questions about this service
Are hunter certification, hunting permission and a firearms licence the same?
No. They involve different purposes and procedures. State which application requires the medical assessment and provide the receiving organisation's form or instructions where available.
A medical document does not automatically replace a certificate, licence or administrative decision. If firearms are also involved, identify that purpose; do not assume one document covers every procedure.
Can additional tests be requested after I have paid?
Yes. The doctor may request clinically relevant evidence for a properly informed decision, such as another professional's report, optometry, diagnostic tests or updated blood tests.
The request must be proportionate and relevant to the assessment; it does not mean every patient needs the same tests. An immediate decision may not be possible. Do not assume that third-party tests are included in the consultation price.
Does an appointment guarantee a certificate or prescription?
No. The consultation is a medical assessment. Issue depends on the available information, necessary documents and requirements for the intended purpose.
The doctor may issue a document, request further evidence or decide that issue is not justified. The same applies to prescriptions: payment does not oblige the doctor to prescribe a specific medicine or guarantee fitness.
