Occupational Health Service

Occupational health is a specialist branch of medicine focusing on the effects of work on health and also the effects of health on work capacity. Occupational health services are there to support people in the workplace, to help to ensure that workplaces are safe and healthy and to address health problems when they arise.

We are are based at the Foresterhill Lea building on the Aberdeen Royal Infirmary site, but also hold clinics at various sites across Grampian.
