Tobias UK CAA AME 10251 UK GMC 2638401
About
me.
I am a
fully qualified and registered doctor, living within the Shoreham ATZ.
Retired from NHS General Practice, I am approved by the UK CAA as an
AME for Professional and Private Pilots, ATCOs and Flight
Engineers.
Since
becoming an AME (Aviation Medical Examiner) in 1999 I have performed more
than 5,000 medicals on behalf of the UK CAA.
As well as perfoming aviation medical
examinations at Shoreham Airport,
I visit Wycombe Air Park in Buckinghamshire (EGTB) 2
days a week to carry out aviation medical examinations there and I also do some work at
the CAA Medical Department at Gatwick.
I can also carry out other
types of medicals such as PSV/HGV medicals, Motor Sport medicals, etc. etc.
Unfortunately the UK National Recreational Pilots Licence medical form has
to be signed by one's own NHS GP, not by an AME.
I qualified in 1980 from the Medical School of Nottingham
University. I gained
my PPL (Aeroplane) in 1992 at Shoreham Airport and my PPL (Helicopter) in March 2006. I still fly
regularly and have nearly
850 hours flight time. If you are interested in the aircraft that I
have flown you are welcome to look at the "my flying"
page.
My post
graduate training has been in General Practice and I passed the
membership examination of the Royal College of General Practitioners
in 1984. I worked full time in General Practice until April 2003,
when I retired from the NHS in order to concentrate on my aviation
medicine work. I have maintained my eligibility to work within the NHS as
a GP and, until recently, have still acted as a very occasional NHS
GP locum.
This link
will confirm my registration with the UK General Medical
Council. You will need my GMC registration 2638401.
