Doctors charges

My daughter who is unemployed after the birth of her twin boys,was on a course to get back to work.After a few weeks she was taken ill with a thyroid problem and had to give up the course. She has now recovered and would like to rejoin the course. She has been told that she requires a doctors note,and went to the surgery to get one.The receptionist told her the doctor would require £45to supply the letter.Is this too much for signing ones name? Or is someone taking advantage of the unemployed who are desperate to get back into work?

Last time I needed anything like that was in late 90`s, and cost £7 for Dr.s signature on an insurance form.

some years ago Ma wanted to go to Oz.
The insurance company required confirmation from the Doctor that she was clear of Cancer and was safe to travel...he charged nothing. This was the Rhyddings Practice in Ossy.
If your daughter saw a hospital specialist during her treatment, I would suggest that she contact the consultant in charge of her care and ask if they will supply evidence that she is fit to take up the course.
