If you've not had your assessment yet, try and make sure you audio record it (a dictation machine or a mobile with a record facility in the shirt pocket would do the job).

And no, you don't have to tell them that you're doing it.

Anyone who attends an Atos medical should do this - it's best to be prepared as far as they're concerned.

If you don't, you'll wish you had, because you can also expect the report they compile on you to contain many lies and misinterpretations.

I never did this, I had 3 Atos medicals cancelled by Atos on the day after I had arrived because too many people had turned up for their appointments and they couldn't fit me in. I can honestly say that other than the booking system which is seriously flawed I have never had a problem. I flew through my medical (when they finally saw me after I refused to leave till I had been seen) with absolutely no problems, got my report through which was perfect no lies or misionterpretations.

I guess from reading about so many of them going wrong that I was exceptionally lucky but I think people coming on here to find out more about the medicals will be scared if all they read is the bad.

Also for anyone who is going for a medical you can have someone with you at all times, if they tell you you can't they are lying!
