Question About Getting A Doctor's Note

I went to the doctors on Thursday and got refered to a physiotherapist. Whilst I was there, I forgot to ask if it was possible for me to be signed off sick. (as I'm currently in alot of pain and have been for the last few months or so)
My questions are:
- Do I need to make another appointment to get a note, or can I just phone up and get the receptionist to sort it out?
- Can the physiotherapist give me a note if (for whatever reason) I can't get one from the doctor?

From what I know the forms have to come from the doctor rather than the physio. You may find that the physio can ask the doctor to write one rather than needing to use another doctors appoitment,
