It is not necessary for the examinee to undertake an exercise test for the purposes of the ERT assessment, however we could carry this out if the examinee is unable to provide proof of evidence of ability to undertake sustained vigorous activity.
As a simple guide, those examinees able to provide evidence of completion of a ‘fun run’ of 5k or more at a suitable pace may be judged to have provided sufficient evidence; evidence of membership of and regular training at a running club, cycling club, football team or similar activity are also likely to be sufficient. 

The ERT medical will last approx 45 minutes.

• Photo ID (passport or driving license)
• Your glasses / contact lenses if worn
