We are pleased to announce that The Wood Street Clinic plans to reopen for testing of professional drivers in the second half of August.
We are currently finalising our plans.
These are dependent on the Covid 19 situation remaining stable.
At first there will only be limited availability of test appointments.
We will be able to offer treadmill exercise testing and LVEF measurement initially. These are the tests that most drivers need.
At first stress echocardiography will not be available.
There will be strict precautions in place for drivers attending for testing.
You will be given full details at the time of booking.
Our first concern is the safety of our staff and drivers.
If you have already contacted us, we have kept a record and you will be contacted when appointments are available. Note there is a waiting list so there may be a short delay in getting tests done.
You can leave your contact details by telephone voicemail 020 8449 7656.
Alternatively, you can contact us by email
We look forward to seeing you
Stay safe
The Wood Street Clinic Team
