Doctor Review Medical/Back to work medicals: What will a fitness/return to work medical consist of?
This type of medical is used to assess whether an individual is fit to work and to provide recommendations for a prompt and safe return to work. The candidate will see an occupational physician to discuss the specific circumstances of the referral. The employing company will be required to complete a management referral form for the individual. Please provide as much detail as possible to ensure that the physician has enough information to make an informed decision. The physician may need to liaise with GPs and specialists to gather further information. In order to gain access to the candidate’s medical records, the individual would need to fill out a consent form. The findings and recommendations will be presented back to the employer in the form of a comprehensive written report. Fitness/return to work medical assessments by occupational physicians are available at our London, Derby and Stoke centres , alongside a national network of associated medical centres.
