Format for what?
DV route is not an easy one. You need to prove you were subject to domestic abuse. You can use NHS records but I guess you may need more evidence then this.
Your GP is not an immigration specialist. It is not their role to provide anything in relation to immigration other than a summary of your health records. They are also not social services.
If you were subject to DV or abuse you should get police records, court proceedings, social services reports as well as health records if you were injured.
You must also meet other conditions. It is usually expected for your spouse to be settled and for you to have immigration status based on you relationship.
The only good advice I can give you is to seek professional immigration advice. (You may get it from charities). DV is not a straightforward route.
I am not a lawyer or immigration advisor. My statements/comments do not constitute legal advice.
I take no responsibility for following them.

According to your previous posts/timeline, you were granted ILR under SET(DV) in December 2024

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

The threshold for granting ILR under the domestic violence route is understandably high to avoid abuse. In rare circumstances, such claims were used to circumvent the immigration system and as a way to stay in the UK when it was not appropriate. UKVI will evaluate the evidence and seriousness of the case to see if granting ILR is appropriate. The stronger the evidence, the higher the chance of being granted ILR.
There is an official guide on this. Look for 'Table of evidence' in this guide:
