I went to the docs in Huddersfield and paid what Jonahs_mummy has been quoted.The only thing you will have to pay extra for is Hepititus - if your going to be a nurse, doctor or working with children or if you have tattoo's or at high risk i.e: had a blood transfusion etc
Also there may be a charge of £25 or so if you want the meds sent by recorded post ( recommended so they don't get lost )
I didn't have to pay an extra £50 per adult - what a rip off. I'd get phoning round if I were you.
Hope that helps
Wendy

Hi Re: meds they usually take one syringe of blood and all adults have
HIV test if you have tatoos you also get tested for hep B. I work in the
medical field so I had to be tested for Hep B. and Hep C they cost me an
extra 25.00 each. Husband is an accountant with no tatoos so he only
had HIV test.
It is a relief once you have meds :D !!!!!

Had my x-rays in Preston @ £60 each ( My Wife & I)
Have meds booked (also Preston) for 30th Dec, been quoted £95 for adults, £50 for the kids, Blood tests £35 and postage £15. I have a tattoo but wasn't asked about this on the phone.....
So for my family of 4, the Meds should cost £495 including x-rays.

Its nicola again and I have seen this after I posted the previous mail questioning where you had your medicals done. My new question is who was the £460 doctor?

Hi
The docs details and number is The Lindley Group Practise 01484 347081
X-rays - 01484 341286
I rang the doctors first and made appointments there then rang the hospital and they fit me in just before. The doctors is next door to Huddersfield Royal Infirmary where the x-rays are done.
If you tell the hospital you're having a medical next door they will fit in around it so you can have it done on the same day
I've tried to attach the list I received from the agent - don't know if it will work though.
