Occupational Health Provider in Aberdeen

Aberdeen is the centre of the UK’s energy industry and MCL Medics has operated here since the early days of our offshore medical division.

We run a permanent clinic in Aberdeen staffed by directly employed occupational health physicians, nurses and advisors. For energy sector employers, our Aberdeen base is where offshore medic deployments, OEUK medicals, health surveillance programmes and management referrals are coordinated.

Why employers in Aberdeen choose MCL Medics

Aberdeen has several occupational health providers serving the energy sector. What sets MCL Medics apart is that your occupational health, EAP, and offshore medical services all sit under one clinical governance framework. When an offshore medic identifies a health concern on a platform, the referral into our OH service is direct. When an OH assessment identifies a need for counselling, the pathway into our EAP is immediate. No information gaps between separate providers. No delays re-referring between companies. One team, one set of clinical records, one governance standard.

National reach, local delivery

MCL Medics is not just an Aberdeen provider. We deliver occupational health, EAP, and remote medical services to employers across the UK from 5 clinics and a national network of partner locations. If your Aberdeen operation is part of a larger organisation with sites in London, Manchester, or Birmingham, one MCL Medics contract covers all of them. One set of clinical standards, one reporting format, one account team. We handle single-site employers with 50 staff and multi-site organisations with thousands of employees across dozens of locations. The service scales to fit.
