Healthcare Professionals
Doctors, nurses, midwives, dentists, paramedics and allied health staff requiring NHS Trust or private hospital pre-employment immunity evidence, including EPP clearance.
Medical & Nursing Students
Hepatitis B, MMR and varicella evidence required before clinical placements at medical, dental, nursing, midwifery and paramedic schools across the UK.
Care & Nursing Home Staff
Care assistants, domiciliary carers, support workers and nursing home employees needing CQC-compliant immunity status and Hepatitis B vaccination records.
Childcare & Nursery Workers
Nursery practitioners, school staff, childminders and au pairs whose employers require evidence of MMR, varicella and hepatitis immunity prior to start.
Visa & Embassy Applicants
Bespoke panels for work, study and residency visas — including specific bloodborne virus, MMR and TB requirements for embassies and immigration medicals.

Laboratory technicians, post-mortem room staff, veterinary practitioners and tattoo & piercing professionals requiring documented immunity to bloodborne viruses.
A complete pathway — screening, titres & certificates
Every sample is a venous blood draw taken by our trained clinicians and processed by UKAS-accredited UK pathology laboratories. Individual tests and full panels available.
Bloodborne Virus Screening
The cornerstone of occupational health for any clinical, care or laboratory role. Our doctors order the specific markers your employer or training body requires — whether that’s a simple immunity check, a full EPP panel, or post-exposure screening.
All results are reviewed by a GP, with a signed letter or certificate issued in your name suitable for NHS Trusts, private hospitals and universities.

MMR Immunity Titres
Most adults received MMR in childhood, but many employers, universities and care providers now ask for laboratory evidence of immunity rather than relying on vaccination records alone — particularly for measles, where outbreaks across Europe have refocused attention on antibody status.
Where a titre is below the protective threshold, we can administer an MMR booster on the same day or arrange a top-up course.

Varicella (Chicken Pox) Immunity
A documented varicella IgG result is required by virtually every UK healthcare employer, nursing programme and care provider. A surprising number of adults who believe they had chickenpox in childhood test below the protective threshold.
If your titre is negative or equivocal, we can administer the two-dose varicella vaccination on-site and issue confirmation once the course is complete.

TB Screening & Supplementary Tests
Where your role requires evidence of latent tuberculosis screening, we offer Interferon-Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) testing — the preferred modern alternative to the older Mantoux skin test.
We also organise supplementary occupational health tests on request, including syphilis serology, drug-and-alcohol screening, BCG scar review and visa-specific panels.

Antibody Titre & Booster Pathway

- Pre-vaccination titre check (MMR, VZV, HBV)
- Selective boosters — only what’s needed
- Hepatitis B accelerated 3-dose course
- Post-course Anti-HBs immunity confirmation
- Vaccination passport / record
- Same-clinic appointments for all stages
An end-to-end doctor-led service
Where a titre comes back below the protective threshold, our doctors can arrange your booster or full vaccination course in the same clinic — no need to be referred elsewhere.
Hepatitis B
Active immunisation against Hepatitis B virus — the most commonly required occupational vaccine for clinical and care roles.
- Standard schedule: 0, 1 & 6 months
- Accelerated schedule: 0, 1 & 2 months
- Single-dose boosters for documented immunity loss
- Post-course Anti-HBs immunity check
MMR
Combined measles, mumps and rubella vaccination for adults who lack documented immunity or whose IgG titres are below the protective range.
- Two-dose schedule, 4-6 weeks apart
- Suitable for adults of all ages
- Pre-employment & pre-placement evidence
- Optional post-vaccination IgG titre
Varicella
Active immunisation against varicella zoster virus (chicken pox) for adults whose IgG result is negative or equivocal.
- Two-dose schedule, 6-8 weeks apart
- Particularly important for healthcare roles

Four straightforward steps to certified results
From booking to signed certificate, our process is designed to fit around clinical shifts, course timetables and visa deadlines — without ever compromising on accuracy.
Book
Book online, by phone or by email. Tell us what your employer, university or embassy requires and we’ll confirm exactly which tests are needed.
Consult
A short clinician consultation reviews your history, any previous vaccinations or test results, and confirms the panel — no surprises on cost or scope.
Sample
A skilled clinician takes a single venous blood sample at our clinic. Most clients are in and out within 20 minutes. Home visits are available on request.
Certify
Results are reviewed by your GP, returned typically within 24-72 hours, and issued as a signed letter or certificate suitable for your employer or institution.
Occupational health, locally accessible
Our clinic at Woodside House in Hinchley Wood is moments from the A3 and Hinchley Wood station, with on-site parking. We’re the convenient choice for clients across Surrey and South West London.
Frequently asked
How quickly can I be seen?
Most clients are offered an appointment within the same week, and often the same day depending on availability. Please mention any deadlines — for example a contract start date, university placement or visa submission — when you book and we’ll prioritise accordingly.
How long do results take?
For standard panels, most results are returned within 24-72 hours of sampling. Where Nucleic Acid Testing (NAT/PCR) or TB IGRA testing is required, this can extend up to 5-7 working days. We’ll always give you a realistic timeline at the consultation.
Will I receive a certificate I can give my employer?
Yes — once results are reviewed by your GP we issue a signed letter or certificate in your name listing each test and its result. This is accepted by NHS Trusts, private hospitals, universities, embassies and care providers across the UK.
For roles requiring Identified Validated Sample (IVS) chain-of-custody documentation, please let us know in advance so we can arrange this.
What if my titre is below the protective threshold?
This is more common than people expect — particularly with childhood MMR and varicella records. Rather than send you elsewhere, our doctors can administer the appropriate booster or full vaccination course on-site, and arrange the follow-up titre check to confirm immunity.
Do you offer home visits?
Yes. For clients who can’t attend the clinic, our team offers professional home-visit phlebotomy across Hinchley Wood, Esher, Cobham, Oxshott, Surbiton, Hampton and surrounding parts of Surrey and South West London. Home visits attract a small additional fee — please ask for a quote.
Why not use a home finger-prick kit?
For occupational health purposes we never use finger-prick kits. Employer-grade immunity evidence relies on properly drawn venous samples processed by UKAS-accredited UK laboratories — the only standard that’s consistently accepted by NHS Trusts, training bodies and embassies.
I’m not sure exactly which tests my employer needs — can you help?
Absolutely. Forward us the immunity checklist or pre-employment form you’ve been sent (email info@hinchleymedical.co.uk) and one of our doctors will review it and confirm exactly which tests and vaccinations are required — with a tailored quote — before you commit.
Do you provide corporate or group occupational health screening?
Yes — we work with care homes, dental practices, GP surgeries, private clinics and Surrey businesses to deliver staff immunity screening, Hepatitis B vaccination programmes and pre-employment medicals. Please see our Corporate Services page or contact us for a bespoke quote.
