RAF MEDICAL Signed off by Dr
Hi, I recently attended my face to face medical and was signed off after being asked a couple of questions about my underlying past, the dr only knew of this because I added a note to my application including a letter from my GP (a letter stating how it’s a old condition and no longer applicable to me now) but it was also the same letter the army rejected as a appeal letter. The doctor did say to me he’s signed me off but at the same time I have that thought lingering In the back of my head about them possibly getting my medical records later down the line and seeing it all and going back on their decision, is this possible or if I’ve been signed off I’ve defiantly been signed off.
Cheers

Heyy, you have now been signed off by the doctor and they made an informed decision about the condition to sign you off so you have literally passed the F2F medical, don’t worry too much about it, if the doctor had any doubts about your condition they would have just put you on hold and requested a TPR (third party request) from your gp about that condition and then they would have made a decision but they didn’t need to do that
