Work medicals & employer services

Medical examinations and forms for work and other requirements, including:

Cuts, sprains, crush injuries, eye injuries and other injuries at work are assessed and treated at the clinic. The doctor records what happened and what was found, so the records can be used for a work injury compensation claim if one is made.

Work injury compensation claims are handled by the employer, the insurer and the Ministry of Manpower. We provide accurate medical records and reports, and follow-up to support a safe return to work. Medical leave is given only when the doctor finds it medically needed, and we cannot promise that an insurer will pay.

Companies can set up an account so staff can be seen at the clinic for illness and injuries, with the scope of care, authorisation and billing agreed in writing.

We can also run dedicated vaccination and health screening sessions for staff, at the clinic or at your workplace. These sessions are staffed separately from the walk-in clinic, and abnormal results are followed up with each person directly and confidentially.

Workers exposed to certain hazards at work, such as excessive noise or some chemicals, may need regular medical examinations under the Workplace Safety and Health regulations. Some of these must be done by a Designated Workplace Doctor.

We arrange these checks, including hearing tests (audiometry), with partner providers and accredited doctors who meet the requirements for each type of examination. Results are explained to each worker, and the doctor follows up on any abnormal findings.

Night and rotating shifts can affect sleep, alertness, weight, blood sugar and blood pressure. The doctor looks at your sleep, work pattern and health, checks for problems such as sleep apnoea, and arranges tests where needed.

You get practical advice on sleep, meals, caffeine and exercise around your shifts, and follow-up for any conditions found. Programmes can also be arranged for groups of staff through an employer. Your medical information stays confidential, and the doctor's advice on fitness to work is based on your health, not on what an employer wants to hear.

A doctor can prepare a medical report on your condition, treatment and progress, such as for an employer, insurer or lawyer. Reports are based on your records and an examination, and the report fee is explained before it is written.

Fitness-for-duty reviews look at whether you can safely return to work or do a particular job after an illness or injury, and whether adjustments such as light duties would help. Medicals and forms for schools, universities and overseas study are also done by appointment; please bring the required forms and check any specific tests needed.
