We’re here to help guide you on what to expect from your assessment. Our experienced team can provide all the information that you need to prepare you for your independent medical assessment.
The consultant will ask you details about the history of your condition in addition to some more general questions, which are relevant to your impairment status.
As this is not a clinical consultation, details discussed are not confidential between the doctor and the examinee. When the examination is concluded, the doctor will write an assessment report which will be forwarded only to Examinex and the organisation requesting the report.
The consultant is not your treating doctor, and therefore it is not appropriate to ask their opinion or advice as they must remain independent. The consultant that sees you will have nothing to do with the management of your absence 0r claim; and their task is restricted to assessment of your status and its effects. We ask you therefore not to ask for advice of any kind at all, as they are not permitted to act in this role.
Accompanying/support persons will be admitted into the examination room only under exceptional circumstances. Please advise if anybody is to be present in room while assessment is taking place. Children, if not being examined, should not accompany you to this consultation.
