It took my lot over two months from seeing the Atos doctor till final day of service. And Yes, you will need to see a doctor. They won't pay you off on preliminary phonecalls.
Tbf, you wouldn't want them to. See a doctor, get a proper examination, ask for a copy of the report and keep it safe, make sure there's a paper trail every step of the process. You don't want anything coming back to bite you on the arse later on.
Just spilt stain-remover down my shirt. Now how do I get that out?

I never saw a doctor face to face ,it was a phone call only.I did see other people from ATOS in the past!

Usually if they recommend you for IHR they will tell you at the meeting or it will say on the paperwork. They advised me at my medical that they were recommending IHR
