PIP and disability benefits · Independent evidence

Private PIP medical report and supporting letter.

A PIP decision turns on how well your condition is understood. I am an experienced GP on the GMC GP Register, and I prepare clear, honest medical evidence describing how your condition affects your daily living and mobility — for a new claim, a mandatory reconsideration, or a tribunal appeal.

What it is

Independent medical evidence for your PIP claim.

The piece most people miss is that the assessor may never see the day to day reality of living with a condition. A clear, independent report puts that reality on the record.

I take the time to understand your conditions, I read the evidence you provide, and I write a structured report describing how your health affects the areas PIP looks at: daily living and mobility. It is honest and specific. I do not exaggerate, because accuracy is what gives a report weight with decision makers and tribunals.

Where mental health is part of the picture, my special interest in psychological medicine helps me describe its effect calmly and fairly.

How you are assessed

By secure video, from home.

Assessments are done by secure video, which suits many people with mobility or health difficulties, and your report is delivered by email. Where an examination would genuinely add to the evidence, I will say so — face-to-face appointments at our Palmers Green clinic and home visits are available from Wednesday 12 August 2026.

The report is prepared by Dr Mitesh Parmar, MBBS MRCGP, GMC 6113670, an experienced GP with a parallel medico-legal practice. Clinique Alpa is registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC), and every report is independent, impartial and written in plain English.

When it helps

People come to me at every stage.

Whether you are starting a claim or preparing for a hearing, independent evidence is prepared the same way: carefully, honestly, and on time.

01

New PIP claims

Independent evidence from the outset, describing your real day to day difficulties.

02

Mandatory reconsideration

Refused, or awarded fewer points than you expected? An independent report can be submitted with your reconsideration request.

03

Tribunal appeals

Preparing for an independent tribunal hearing? A clear, objective report supports your case.

What is included

What your report includes.

A report is only as strong as the assessment behind it, so every report starts with a proper consultation.

  • 01

    A proper consultation, by secure video.

  • 02

    A careful read of the evidence and records you provide.

  • 03

    A structured report describing how your condition affects your daily living and mobility.

  • 04

    An honest, evidence based opinion. I do not overstate, and that is the point.

  • 05

    A signed supporting letter on clinic letterhead where it is clinically appropriate after assessment.

Independent, by design

Evidence, not advocacy.

A medical report is independent evidence, not advocacy. I do not write what a claim needs; I write what the clinical picture supports. That is precisely what makes a report useful — accuracy is what gives it weight with decision makers and tribunals.

No report can guarantee an award, and anyone who promises that is not being straight with you. The decision rests with the DWP or the tribunal. What you receive is clear, honest, independent evidence that reflects your condition accurately, which you can submit in support of your claim at any stage.

  • 01

    Honest and specific. I do not exaggerate, and I do not overstate. Reports and letters are issued where clinically appropriate after assessment.

  • 02

    No guaranteed outcome. The decision always rests with the DWP or the tribunal, never with the report writer.

  • 03

    Deadlines respected. Tell me about a reconsideration or tribunal deadline and I will prioritise your report.

Questions, answered plainly

Frequently asked questions.

What is a PIP medical report?

It is an independent report or supporting letter, written by a GP, that documents your health conditions and describes, with clinical evidence, how they affect your daily living and mobility. It is written with the areas PIP looks at in mind.

Will a report guarantee I am awarded PIP?

No, and anyone who promises that is not being straight with you. The decision rests with the DWP or the tribunal. What I provide is clear, honest, independent evidence that reflects your condition accurately, which you can submit in support of your claim.

Can you help with a mandatory reconsideration or a tribunal appeal?

Yes. Many people come to me after a refusal or a lower award than expected. An independent report can be submitted as part of a mandatory reconsideration request, or for an appeal to an independent tribunal.

How much does a PIP report cost?

It depends on the length and detail of the report. As a guide, a disability supporting letter is £500 and a standard medical report starts from £120. I confirm the fee before I start, once I understand your case. Full pricing is on our appointments and fees page.

Do I need to attend in person?

No. The assessment can be done by secure video, which suits many people with mobility or health difficulties. In-clinic appointments and home visits are also available from Wednesday 12 August 2026.

How long does it take?

After the assessment, and once I have your supporting evidence, a report is usually ready within a few working days. If you have a reconsideration or tribunal deadline, tell me and I will prioritise it.
