How To Book A Condo Medical With SLM GP
CONDO Medical at SLM GP Liverpool: What It Is and How to Book
If you need a CONDO medical and are looking for a private GP in Liverpool, SLM GP can help. We offer CONDO medical assessments for civilian contractors preparing to work on deployed military operations, carried out by experienced doctors at our Duke Street clinic in Liverpool city centre.
This page explains what a CONDO medical involves, who needs one, and how to book with SLM GP.
What is a CONDO medical?
A CONDO medical is a fitness assessment required for civilian contractors working under the Contractors on Deployed Operations (CONDO) scheme. This scheme covers civilians employed in support roles — including logistics, engineering, IT, and other technical functions — who work alongside military forces in deployed operational environments.
Because these roles can involve extreme temperatures, long working hours, physical demands, and exposure to conflict zones, contractors must be assessed as physically and mentally fit before deployment. The CONDO medical is that assessment. It ensures the contractor is fit to operate safely in the conditions they are likely to face.
The medical is not a standard GP appointment. It is a structured fitness assessment with a specific purpose, and it must be completed by a doctor. All components of the assessment are carried out in full by the clinician.
Who needs a CONDO medical?
You will need a CONDO medical if you are a civilian contractor who has been engaged to work under the CONDO scheme in a deployed military operation. This typically applies to contractors working in support of UK or allied armed forces in overseas operational theatres.
If you are unsure whether your role falls under the CONDO scheme, your employer or contracting authority will be able to confirm this. Your contract documentation should specify whether a CONDO medical is required before you can deploy.
What does a CONDO medical involve?
A CONDO medical is a comprehensive assessment of your physical and mental fitness for deployment. While the exact requirements may vary depending on the contracting authority, a typical CONDO medical assessment will include:
A review of your medical history, including past illnesses, operations, and ongoing conditions
Blood pressure measurement
Cardiovascular and respiratory assessment
Musculoskeletal review — assessing physical fitness for the demands of the role
Mental health and psychological fitness assessment
Vision and hearing checks where required
Review of current medication and any conditions that may affect fitness for deployment
Completion of any forms or documentation specified by your contracting authority
If your contracting authority has provided a specific form or set of requirements, bring those to your appointment. The doctor will work to those requirements rather than making assumptions about what is needed.
How to book a CONDO medical at SLM GP
Booking a CONDO medical at SLM GP is straightforward. Before you get in touch, it helps to have the following ready:
Any forms or documentation provided by your employer or contracting authority
Details of your deployment role and the scheme you are working under
A summary of your current medical history, including any ongoing conditions and medication
Photo identification
Any relevant previous medical records or investigation results
When you contact us, let us know that you need a CONDO medical. This allows us to allocate the right appointment length and ensure the doctor is prepared for the assessment. If you are working to a deployment deadline, mention this when booking so we can prioritise availability accordingly.

What to bring to your appointment
To ensure your CONDO medical goes smoothly, bring everything in one visit. This means your completed forms (aside from the sections the doctor must fill in), photo identification, a list of current medication, and any medical records relevant to your fitness assessment. If you have had recent investigations — blood tests, ECGs, imaging — those results can be useful context for the doctor.
Be ready to give a clear account of your medical history, including any conditions that might be relevant to working in a physically demanding or high-stress operational environment. The doctor's role is to make a clinical assessment, and the more information you can provide, the more thorough and accurate that assessment will be.
How long will the appointment take?
A CONDO medical typically takes longer than a standard GP appointment. The exact duration will depend on the requirements of your contracting authority and the complexity of your medical history. When you book, we will advise on the expected appointment length based on the paperwork you provide.
In most cases, the doctor will complete the required documentation at the time of the appointment or shortly afterwards. If you are working to a tight deployment deadline, let us know when booking and we will do our best to accommodate your timescale.
