Experience.
At One Stop Medical in Mackay, we provide a wide range of other medical services that support everyday life, work, travel and wellbeing—beyond standard check-ups and ongoing care. These include things like medical certificates, driving licence assessments, insurance medicals, and pre-employment health checks.
While these services might not require in-depth treatment, they still need to be handled with accuracy, clinical care and a good understanding of what’s required by employers, insurers or government bodies.
The One Stop Medical team is experienced in conducting these assessments efficiently while ensuring you receive clear information about what’s involved.
We focus on completing all documentation correctly the first time, and we’re happy to answer any questions you have about paperwork, referrals or follow-up steps. To book an appointment for any additional services, call us on (07) 4951 1411.
Supporting Health & Everyday Life
General practice often involves more than illness and injury—it also plays a key role in helping people meet medical requirements for work, licences and travel. At One Stop Medical, we offer thorough and efficient assessments tailored to the needs of different industries, insurance providers and legal obligations. This includes fitness-for-duty checks, pre-employment assessments, medical reports for Centrelink or NDIS, and clearances for recreational or commercial driving. We also provide certificates for illness-related absences from school, work or sporting commitments.
We take the time to understand the purpose of each certificate or assessment and ensure all information is recorded accurately. For employment-related checks, we assess general health, vital signs, medical history and any specific criteria listed by the employer. For licence or insurance forms, we complete the necessary physical exams and vision tests, and advise if additional reports or follow-ups are needed.
These services are part of what makes general practice adaptable to everyday needs. If you require a medical document or clearance for work, travel, or personal reasons, we can help you through the process. Call (07) 4951 1411 to make a booking.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a medical certificate for work or school?
To obtain a medical certificate, you’ll need to book a standard GP appointment. During the consultation, your doctor will assess your symptoms or condition and determine whether a certificate is appropriate. Certificates can be issued for days off due to illness, injury, carer responsibilities or recovery following a procedure. Medical certificates are legal documents and must be based on clinical judgement, so retrospective certificates (backdating) are not always possible.
What’s involved in a driver’s licence medical?
Driver medicals are required for certain licences or as part of renewals, especially for commercial drivers or those with specific health conditions. The assessment typically includes a review of medical history, vision testing, blood pressure check, and discussion of any medications or conditions that may affect safe driving. The results are recorded on a form provided by the Department of Transport, and your doctor may refer you for further testing if needed. It’s important to bring all relevant documents and glasses if required for driving.
Can a GP complete insurance or legal medical forms?
Yes, GPs can complete insurance forms, legal reports and health assessments required for claims, applications or legal processes—provided they have enough information from your history and examination. This may include documents for life insurance, income protection, personal injury claims, or disability support. In some cases, additional tests or records may be required. It’s a good idea to bring the form with you to the appointment and allow time for any follow-up if the paperwork needs extra documentation.
