Height, weight, eyesight chart, field of vision and blood pressure. They also ask if we have any medical conditions such as diabetes (not checked). It takes no more than 5 minutes.

Had one about 3 years ago and they basically tested my wee, my eyes and my heart.

What else is there?

my last one at occy health and the one 15 years ago at another hospital was at least worth what i got charged...

I had one about 12 years ago with what was then my doctors surgery. He said I had to go to the optician for a test cos my peripheral vision isn't good and so long as I promised to do that he would sign my form.

All our LA asks is for a quick written yes from your Doctor...however if you want a school contract they suddenly insist on a D4 medical like PSV and HGV drivers get and they can be £90 a pop..
