Doctor-led recreational diving medical assessment for divers requiring medical clearance for PADI training or diving activities.

PADI Diving Medical

£155

Medical assessment for recreational and scuba divers who require medical clearance before undertaking PADI training or diving activities.

The assessment is doctor-led and considers your medical history, current health and whether any condition could affect safe participation in diving.

Additional Testing or Medical Evidence

Many divers will require only the standard medical assessment.

Where clinically indicated, further medical information or testing such as spirometry may occasionally be required before medical clearance can be completed.

Most PADI diving medicals can be completed within the standard £155 assessment. If additional testing or specialist medical evidence is clinically required, this will be discussed with you before any additional charge is incurred.

If you have answered “Yes” to any question on your diver medical questionnaire, or have an existing medical condition, please bring or send any relevant medical information before your appointment where possible.

What is a PADI Diving Medical?

A PADI diving medical is a doctor-led assessment for recreational divers who require medical clearance before participating in diving training or activities.

The assessment considers your medical history, current health and whether any condition or treatment may affect your ability to dive safely.

When Might Medical Clearance Be Required?

Medical clearance may be required where your diver medical questionnaire identifies a health condition, symptom or treatment that needs medical review before diving.
