Why not use your own GP for the medical?

When I did my medical I went to my own GP and that was a mistake, he had never seen the form before and filled it out wrongly. This resulted in the DVLA taking my licence away for 3 months, luckily I took a photocopy of the medical to force my doctor to write a letter to them explaining that he was wrong but someone who does them regularly and knows the form is much better in my opinion.
