I asked my pc this question and as I work in an office and may only need 1 week off work, my pc said that I can self cert but if your college want one then I would ask your pc to see if the surgeon can give you one… if that’s not sucessful go to your gp you’ll get one from there x
I am 9 months post op now – MYA do not provide a sicknote, Mr Traynor wrote me a surgeons letter stating I had had breast surgery, it is not a sicknote. I had to contact my GP for a sicknote xx
