Obviously... the best FAA AME in the UK is none other than our own Flying Dutch. If travelling to Daventry for his services is impossible, he will certainly be able to advise you on somebody closer to you. I know of a couple in Hertfordshire if you are on that side of Essex.

You can search by postcode or country for UK AMEs and the ones who do FAA, NZ, etc normally advertsie their wares there too. Can't remember the CAA direct address but you can get there in two clicks via

My AME does both. Works out cheaper. If I don't meet the health requirements for a medical, it's both "out of the window" anyway, innit?

There seem to be some people in GA land that think that if you lose your CAA ticket you can just get an FAA medical and away are all your worries.
Just to put them right I would like to say the following:
1. In broad terms the same standards apply.
2. Whilst there are some conditions which would meet with a denial for a JAR medical and may well be able to be certified there are quite a few hoops to jump through and being looked at under a magnifying glass before they would get the OK, certainly not a rubber stamp job.
3. If you have had a medical problem as under 2 then you would have to disclose that and need the appropriate investigations i.e. you are found to have something on the JAR class 2 medical then you can not just apply for an FAA class 3 just because they don't need an ECG (normally)
