Who needs a work medical?

You may need a work medical or occupational health check if:

• You’re starting a new job and need a pre-employment health check
• Your employer requires a fitness-to-work certificate
• You’re returning to work after a period of sick leave
• You work in a higher-risk industry such as construction, transport or offshore work
• Your role involves safety-critical tasks (such as operating heavy machinery, working at heights or shift work)
• You need a certificate to comply with licensing authorities, like Transport for London (TFL) or the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) 

Whatever the reason, our team is here to carry out your medical promptly and professionally.

Our GPs are experienced in carrying out a range of occupational health checks, including pre-employment assessments, fitness-to-work evaluations and return-to-work certifications. We follow the latest UK guidance and industry standards, and we’ll always ensure your assessment is tailored to your role.

What to expect at your appointment

During your appointment, one of our experienced GPs will guide you through a personalised assessment based on the requirements of your role.

• A physical examination
• Blood and urine tests (extra fees apply)
• General vision and hearing checks
• Blood pressure and heart rate measurement

Occupational health reporting

Once your assessment is complete, we’ll provide all necessary documentation, including:

• Fit to work certificate or medical fitness certificate
• Completed employer forms (where required)
• A summary of findings and any recommendations
• Laboratory or imaging reports (if applicable)

If your medical needs to be submitted to a regulatory body, we’ll let you know how and when to do this. In most cases, you’ll receive your documentation on the same day.
