Welcome to Brook Medical Centre Online

In the 1970’s Northampton underwent a large expansion under the direction of the Northampton Development Corporation. The majority of the growth was centred on the Eastern side of the town and as well as schools, shops and pubs new surgeries were planned.

Initially, medical care was provided from two houses provided by the Development Corporation. In 1986 the partners decided that they could give better care from purpose built premises and the current surgery was built. Both branch surgeries were subsequently closed and the patients moved to Brook Medical Centre.

We try to retain the old values of traditional family practice whilst making full use of modern advances in treatment delivery to ensure that the clinical standard of care is as high as we can achieve.

MEDICAL CERTIFICATES

Our procedure for re-issuing Medical Certificates works in the same way as repeat prescriptions, i.e. it will take 2 working days from receiving a request to the issue of a certificate. Requests are passed to the doctors first thing in the morning, usually the day after we receive them. They are signed during that day (as and when the doctor has time), ready for issue to patients on the following day.

The doctors are not permitted to issue follow-on MED3 Medical Certificates in advance of the end date for the current certificate.We will accept repeat Medical Certificate requests on the day before they are due, ready to pass to the doctor next morning, i.e the due date. Certificates will be dated to provide continuous cover.

Please remember that there is no requirement for a GP to issue a Medical Certificate for the first seven days of illness or for children attending school or college. If this is needed you will be expected to pay for a private certificate.
