Aviation Medical Services

Aviation medicine focuses on the health and wellbeing of aviation professionals. It involves the assessment, certification, and monitoring of individuals involved in aviation activities, as well as the identification and management of medical conditions that may affect aviation safety.

Dr Louis Beak is an independent General Practitioner consulting from Montier Health Benowa and is a qualified Designated Aviation Medical Examiner (DAME) for the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), and a member of the Australasian Society of Aerospace Medicine (ASAM).

Dr Beak provides the following aviation medical services:

  • CASA Class 1, 2, and 3 Aviation Medical Examinations (Private and Commercial)
  • ECG and spirometry services (available onsite)

Common Questions

How soon before my certificate expires should I have my medical done?
Ideally 2–4 weeks before your current certificate expires. Please book your appointment with Dr Beak in advance.

Before Your Appointment

Applicants are required to complete CASA’s online medical questionnaire via the MRS2 system prior to attending their appointment.

For initial Class 1 or Class 3 medicals, you may be required to arrange:

  • Eye examination with a Designated Aviation Ophthalmologist (DAO) or Certified Aviation Optometrist (no referral required; providers listed on the CASA website)
  • Pathology testing for cholesterol and glucose (fasting). Dr Beak may provide a pathology request form upon request. Testing should ideally be completed prior to your appointment so results are available
  • Hearing test through an audiologist (e.g. Neurosensory or Connect Hearing), with results brought to your appointment

ECG testing may be performed onsite at Montier Health Benowa as part of your appointment with Dr Beak.

During Your Appointment

Dr Beak will review your medical history, complete the required examination, and submit the relevant information to CASA.

A copy of your medical certificate will be provided to you following completion.
