From 9 September 2024, there will no longer be a doctor's fee in England and Wales when arranging a funeral. This is because from this date, all deaths in England and Wales will be independently viewed, either by a relevant coroner or by a Medical Examiner and the cost will be met by the NHS.
A Medical Examiner is a specifically trained independent senior doctor who will scrutinise all deaths across a local area that do not fall under the coroner's jurisdiction. By providing a greater level of scrutiny over the cause of deaths; it is hoped that the introduction of Medical Examiners will make it less likely that unnatural causes of death will go unnoticed; that the number of deaths unnecessarily referred to the coroner will be reduced and that national data about causes of death will be captured with greater accuracy.
Medical Examiners, or Medical Examiner Officers, will also be available to meet with families, or their representatives, if they wish to discuss the cause of death.
My Mom's funeral took place on Monday 22nd July 2019, and I am so glad to have had the support of the lovely staff at A Hazel & Sons literally every step of the way.
From our initial meeting with Sharon in the Sutton Coldfield Funeral Home, to the service itself, every little detail was taken care of professionally and with compassion. Nothing was too much trouble, and the truly personal touches meant everything to me - Mom had a lovely send off and she would have been so proud!
Thank you for an exceptional review. I am pleased that you had the trust and confidence in our team to be able to deliver the service you expected and that you and the family were well cared for.

We appreciate you leaving a review online for your experience with A Hazel & Sons. I am pleased we were able to help make things easier for you at such a difficult time and that we were able to ease any worries you may have had.
A hazel's & sons was helpful from start to finish with the arrangements of my late grandad's funeral. Nothing was to much trouble and all are requests were carried out from the care of my grandad in the chapel of rest to the service itself. It was the send of my grandad had requested and we couldn't have asked for more many thanks to all the staff that made a hard time a little more easier to deal with.
Thank you for taking the time to send your online review to us. I am pleased that the arrangements for your Grandad were carried out to your satisfaction and that the team looked after you and the family well.
Your staff were very professional and were always sympathetic with the feelings of myself and my family. Felt very comfortable with them.
Thank you for the kind comments posted on your online review. I am pleased to hear that our team were so kind and caring to your family and that we were able to provide you with the dignity and respect needed at this time.
I have absolutely no problem in giving our most sincere and heartfelt thanks to the staff at A Hazel and Son's Erdington and across the company at their call receiving centre, for the way in which they dealt with the funeral of my late mother. From the initial introduction to the day itself, all of the staff were extremely polite,courteous and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble, nothing was too much bother. It was possibly made easier by us thinking about what we wanted in the way of a funeral and going to Hazel's with a clear idea; however, they made the whole process seamless and for that I have nothing but thanks and gratitude.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us on your online review. I am glad that we were able to provide you with the dignity and respect needed at this time and that all of your wishes and requirements were carried out by the team as you had requested.
