Welcome to PilotMedicalsScotland.com<\/h2>\n

Dr. Malcolm Sim BSc (Hons), MBChB, MD, FRCP, FRCA, FFICM, EDIC<\/b><\/p>\n

I am a Consultant in Intensive Care and Anaesthesia working at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow where I lead the Critical Care research.\n

\nI learned to fly at Prestwick Flight Centre in a Cessna 152. I still very much enjoy taking to the skies in a Piper Cherokee Archer, although we are in the process of transitioning to an Arrow. I have my night rating and am working towards acquiring the IR(R). I was once lucky enough to have a trial flying a Jet Provost, which is certainly the fastest aircraft I have ever piloted!\n

\nIn 2024 I completed a course in Aviation Medicine at King\u2019s College London and subsequent training required by the CAA and am now an examiner for Class II and cabin crew medicals. I am aiming to add Class I privileges later this year.<\/p>\n\nDr Sim \u2013 Glasgow Hillington<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

DIGNITY<\/h2>\n

I strongly respect your right to dignity during medical examination.<\/p>\nIntimate examination (i.e. breast, testicular and rectal examination) is not part of aircrew medicals.\n\nA chaperone is always present for female medicals and can be arranged for male medicals \u2013 just ask!\n\nIf you wish, you can download self-examination leaflets below.\n\n\n\n
