Corporate health assessment, the full executive medical for employers.

A consultant physician-led executive medical - cardiovascular, metabolic, respiratory, mental health and fitness - with a structured occupational-health report your employer can act on, and the clinical detail kept confidential to the individual.

Why employers choose us

  • 01

    Consultant physician led

    A named consultant physician runs the assessment - not a nurse-only screen and not a checkbox tick-list. Findings are interpreted, not just reported.

  • 03

    Evidence-based screening only

    We test what the evidence supports - JBS3, NICE and ESC Preventive Cardiology - not every proprietary panel a lab can sell.

Indicative pricing

What a corporate health assessment costs in London.

Indicative ranges across UK private providers.

In short

£1,400–£2,200, a half-day at the clinic.

Prices vary by tier, by which physician runs the assessment, and by add-ons (ABPM, DEXA, CPET). Multi-executive contracts and annual retainers are discounted.

The problem

Consultant-led, evidence-based, and coordinated end-to-end.

Most corporate medicals are still a nurse-only screen with a template report. That is not a preventive assessment - it is a form. We do the assessment properly, then translate it for the employer without breaching the clinical confidence.

  • A physician, not just a form

    A consultant physician interprets every result - not a nurse handing over a printout with no context.

  • The right evidence base

    JBS3, NICE and ESC Preventive Cardiology guide the panel - not every proprietary marker a lab wants to sell.

  • HR-friendly coordination

    One point of contact for booking, follow-up and the OH report - with clinical detail kept confidential to the executive.

When it helps

When a corporate health assessment is the right step.

The situations we see most, plus the one red flag that means an emergency rather than a booking.

  • Pre-employment medical

    Baseline fitness-to-work assessment for a new hire in a demanding role, including cardiovascular and mental health screen.

  • Annual executive medical

    A yearly full physical for board and senior leadership - cardiovascular risk, metabolic health, cancer screen, fitness.

  • Board-level fitness-to-serve

    Independent assessment where a board seat, a public role or a fiduciary duty requires documented fitness.

  • Expat pre-posting medical

    Full work-up before an overseas posting, including vaccinations review, mental health screen and any region-specific screening.

  • Insurance underwriting support

    Full medical to support life or key-person insurance underwriting - with results in a format insurers accept.

  • Return-to-work after illness

    Structured assessment after a significant illness or sickness absence, with a clear return-to-work plan.

  • Wellbeing programme baseline

    Individual baselines feeding an anonymised organisational wellbeing programme - never named data to employers.

  • Red flag: acute cardiac symptoms

    Chest pain at rest, blackouts or severe breathlessness are not for a screening clinic - same-day A&E, not a booking.

Tiers and components

Essentials, Comprehensive or Executive.

What each tier actually includes - and which fits which role.

  • Essentials tier

    Consultant physician consultation, ECG, resting BP, urinalysis, and a core blood panel (FBC, U&E, LFT, HbA1c, lipids, thyroid).

  • Comprehensive tier

    Adds spirometry, ferritin, vitamin D, B12, PSA in men over 50, PHQ-9 and GAD-7 mental health screen, and a lifestyle audit.

  • Executive tier

    Adds VO₂ max / CPET, advanced lipids (Lp(a) and apoB), 24-hour ABPM, DEXA where indicated, and a full cardiovascular risk stratification.

  • Ambulatory BP (ABPM)

    24-hour blood pressure monitoring where clinic readings are borderline or masked hypertension is suspected - often more accurate than a clinic BP.

  • Cardiorespiratory fitness

    VO₂ max or full CPET on a treadmill or bike - the objective measure of aerobic fitness, and a strong predictor of long-term outcomes.

  • Mental health screen

    PHQ-9 (depression) and GAD-7 (anxiety) with a physician conversation - never a form on its own, always interpreted.

  • Cardiovascular risk work

    QRISK3 and JBS3 lifetime risk, advanced lipids (Lp(a) and apoB), and a plan that acts on the number - not just quotes it.

  • OH physician report

    A structured fitness-to-work report to your occupational health physician - enough for the employer decision, without breaching the clinical confidence.

Findings and red flags

What we act on - and what we escalate.

A corporate health assessment is a screening tool, not a diagnostic one. What matters is what we do with the findings - and the confidence lines around them.

  • Screening is not diagnostic

    A health assessment finds signals, not diagnoses. Positive findings mean further work-up - which is arranged for you, not left on your desk.

  • Clinical detail stays with the employee

    The employer receives a structured fitness-to-work opinion via an OH physician. Blood results, mental health scores and clinical detail stay confidential.

  • Positive cancer screen

    A PSA over range, an abnormal urinalysis or an unexpected imaging finding is triaged the same week to the relevant consultant.

  • Elevated Lp(a) is inherited

    A high Lp(a) is genetic and worth knowing - it changes risk and it changes treatment thresholds for cholesterol.

  • Diabetes or prediabetes found

    An HbA1c over 42 mmol/mol needs a plan, not a printout. Lifestyle, medication and a review timetable are set out with the physician.

  • Hypertension found on the day

    A raised BP at screening prompts an ABPM before a diagnosis is made - clinic readings alone are not enough.

  • Arrhythmia on ECG

    A rhythm abnormality on the resting ECG is escalated to a consultant cardiologist - sometimes the same day.

  • Mental health flag

    A PHQ-9 over 10 or GAD-7 over 10 is a conversation with the physician on the day, and an onward pathway if the person wants one.

  • Occupational health flag

    Where the assessment shows a risk to the role or to others (safety-critical work, driving, aviation) it is flagged through the OH physician, correctly.

  • Executive stress and cortisol

    Persistent fatigue, disrupted sleep and cortisol dysregulation are common at senior level - treated as clinical, not a personality trait.

  • Fitness-for-work concerns

    Where fitness for a specific role is in question, the assessment is structured to answer that question - with the OH physician making the final call.

  • Red flags on the day

    Acute chest pain, blackouts, severe breathlessness or suicidal ideation are managed on the day - not deferred to a report.

Reading your report

Your report in four parts. Read the last one first.

The personal clinical report goes to the executive. A separate structured occupational-health opinion goes to the employer via the OH physician.

A quiet reminder

Clinical detail stays with the executive - the employer sees a fitness-to-work opinion, not a blood panel.

If you would like us to talk you through the report before the debrief, just ask.

  3. 03 Risk

    Cardiovascular and metabolic risk

    QRISK3 and JBS3 lifetime risk, HbA1c and lipid interpretation, and any red flags identified during the visit.

  4. 04 Impression

    Plan, OH opinion and follow-up

Frequently asked

Quick answers on tiers, cost, confidentiality, and what the employer actually receives.

  • What does a corporate health assessment actually include?

    A consultant physician consultation, ECG, spirometry, resting BP (with ambulatory ABPM if needed), a comprehensive blood panel (FBC, U&E, LFT, HbA1c, lipids including Lp(a) and apoB in the Executive tier, thyroid, ferritin, vitamin D, B12, PSA in men over 50), urinalysis, DEXA where indicated, VO₂ max or CPET in the Executive tier, a mental health screen (PHQ-9, GAD-7) and a structured lifestyle audit.

  • Which tier do most executives choose?

    The Comprehensive tier is the usual annual choice for senior leadership. The Executive tier - with CPET, advanced lipids and ABPM - is chosen for board members, high-performance roles and where an objective fitness measure is wanted.

  • How much does a corporate health assessment cost?

    Essentials from £850, Comprehensive from £1,400, Executive from £2,400. Add-ons such as 24-hour ABPM, DEXA and the structured OH report are itemised separately.

  • What does the employer actually receive?

    A structured fitness-to-work report from an occupational health physician - enough to make the employment decision without breaching medical confidence. Clinical detail, blood results and mental health scores stay with the employee.

  • Is a health assessment the same as a diagnostic work-up?

    No. Screening finds signals; diagnosis confirms them.

  • Do you cover pre-employment and expat medicals?

    Yes. Pre-employment medicals, expat pre-posting assessments (including vaccinations review and region-specific screening), and life or key-person insurance underwriting are all supported.

  • Can the assessment come to our office?

    The physician consultation and the mental health screen can be delivered on-site for cohorts of executives. ECG, spirometry, bloods, imaging and CPET are done at the clinic - the equipment and the standards are not easily replicated in an office.

  • What happens if something serious is found on the day?

    Red flags - chest pain, arrhythmia on ECG, a mental health crisis - are managed on the day, not deferred to a report. The physician escalates to A&E or to a same-day consultant as needed.

  • Is a mental health screen included?

    Yes, from the Comprehensive tier upwards. PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores are interpreted by the physician, not left as numbers on a page. Scores above 10 lead to a conversation on the day and an onward pathway if the person wants one.

  • How is confidentiality handled with the employer?

    The clinical assessment is between the employee and the physician. The employer receives an occupational health opinion - fit, fit with adjustments, or not fit - via an OH physician. Named clinical detail is never shared without the employee’s consent.

In practice, in London

Getting corporate health assessment sorted in London, without the guesswork

For corporate health assessment, the private London route is mostly about consultant fit and hospital choice rather than raw waiting time. On the NHS, corporate health assessment typically sits behind a triage step and a wait that can stretch from a few weeks into months. In London’s private sector, the same appointment often lands within days. That speed matters when symptoms are disrupting work, sleep, or a plan you’d already committed to - and it’s the single most common reason people call us in the first place.

A typical private booking for corporate health assessment in London starts with a consultant conversation - sometimes in person on Harley Street or Marylebone, sometimes on video if that suits better. Any imaging or diagnostics happen at a nearby CQC-registered facility, and reports usually land within 24 to 72 hours. The whole loop, from first call to written report, is often done inside a fortnight. For corporate health assessment in particular, we bias towards consultants who do this every week rather than every month.

There are a lot of consultants in London who can technically handle corporate health assessment. Fewer who do it week in, week out for the exact question you’re bringing. We spend most of our time working out which is which - and being straight when a different test or a different specialist would serve you better. Everything runs to CQC, GMC and Royal College standards; the choice is about fit, not floor.
