A pre-employment medical assessment helps employers ensure that new employees are physically and mentally fit to perform the requirements of their role safely and effectively. At Gympie Day and Evening Clinic, we provide prompt, professional, and comprehensive pre-employment medical assessments for individuals and employers across the Gympie region – including industries such as mining, construction, transport, agriculture, healthcare, and the public sector.
Our GPs conduct pre-employment assessments in line with the specific requirements provided by the employer or the relevant industry standard. We can accommodate urgent or same-day assessment requests where possible with our extended opening hours, and we aim to provide completed documentation promptly so your employment commencement is not delayed. Please call 07 2140 4888 before booking to confirm the specific requirements for your assessment and the current fee schedule, as assessment fees are privately billed.

Fast Turnaround on Documentation
We understand that delays in completing your pre-employment medical can hold up your start date. Our GPs aim to complete assessments promptly and provide the required documentation as quickly as possible so your employment process keeps moving.
Employer-Specific Assessment Forms
Bring your employer’s pre-employment medical form and we will complete it according to their specific requirements. If no form is provided, we can conduct a comprehensive standard fitness-for-work assessment covering all key health and functional parameters.
On-Site Testing Available
Where required, we can arrange or conduct additional testing on-site or nearby, including drug and alcohol screening, audiometry (hearing tests), vision testing, and spirometry (lung function), depending on the requirements of your assessment.
Experienced GPs
Our General Practitioners are experienced in conducting occupational health assessments and understand the requirements of common Queensland industries including mining, construction, transport, and emergency services.
Confidential and Impartial Assessment
Your pre-employment medical is conducted with complete confidentiality and impartiality. Your GP’s role is to assess your fitness for the requirements of the role – not to advocate for or against your employment. Only the relevant findings are reported to the employer.

Open Monday to Friday until 9:00 pm and on weekends. If you have just received a job offer and need a medical assessment urgently, we can often accommodate you at short notice. Call 07 2140 4888 to check availability.
