@g7iqj - writing letters for DWP isn't part of a GPs job - so if they do it they're entitled to charge.....

What evidence is it that you want from your GP?

Can you not explain the difficulty that you have, how far you can walk without pain/ having to rest, whether you fall, whether you can repeat it a little while later?

I doubt that my GP could do this, without me telling her what to write. Yours may be different of course....

Good luck anyway....

eveidence  from spechialist ie oprhopedic surgeon , to back up my claim due back problem  off 20 + yrs ago  the outcome  is now  2020  that it which it has  left me with mobility issues  ie limited walking   1 min 20-50 meteres in one go  standing  more 1 min  in turn affects your daily life ..    tribunral  had letter from my GP  stating of  dec2019  ive limited mobility as  above   has to be spechi;list report    just letter from gp not good enough it seems .

Hi,

I see you posted about this in November last year and you were advised to request the statement of reasons and record of proceedings. Did you request these and then find someone to have a look?

g7iqj

lack eveidence to back up my claim   why i failed 

g7iqj

i take it  need up to date report  that simple   getting this report  be the issue

@cristobal is correct, a GP will very rarely know how your conditions affect you. I'm assuming you didn't request the SOR after the Tribunal decision?

g7iqj

 gave  me paper to say failed on the day    DONT UNDERSTAND     THIS   SOR ????   HOW I GET THIS 

g7iqj

as far i concerned  i just need to get  up todate eveidence   re applied  how i get this eveidence  is the issue who pays for it me/ nhs   ie the report

If there's a charge for any reports written then you need to pay for this.

For the statement of reasons then it's HMCTS that you need to request this from but because your Tribunal decision was in November then you could be too late to request this now.
