Female Pilots

I strongly support the increased numbers of women in aviation, and have numerous female clients in both private and commercial flying.

DIGNITY

I strongly respect your right to patient dignity during medical examination. Intimate examination (i.e. breast, vaginal or rectal examination) is not part of the routine aircrew medical.

At your medical I will ask you to confirm that you are up to date on cervical smear testing and that you have self-examined for breast lumps.

I will email breast self-examination leaflets with your booking confirmation.

Chaperone policy: I always arrange a female chaperone for for female medicals.
