Your DOT Physical Exam

We provide physical exams for both CDL and non-CDL drivers, with medical cards issued on the same day.

DOT physicals are mandated for individuals operating commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) that meet specific criteria. The frequency of these exams depends on factors such as age and certain medical conditions.

Our certified medical examiner will perform a comprehensive evaluation of your overall health, focusing on areas specified by the Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations. This evaluation includes:

Medical History Review: The examiner will review your medical history, including any pre-existing conditions, surgeries, or medications that could affect your ability to safely operate a commercial vehicle.
Vision and Hearing Testing
Blood Pressure and Heart Rate Measurement
Urinalysis: A urine sample will be collected and tested for various parameters, including the presence of drugs or alcohol, to ensure compliance with DOT regulations and promote road safety.
Physical Examination
Respiratory Health Evaluation

DOT Medical Card Exam

Medical Certification Process:

Following the examination, our certified medical examiner will assess whether you meet the standards set by the Department of Transportation (DOT). Based on this evaluation, a Medical Examiner’s Certificate may be issued, valid for up to 24 months. In cases where monitoring of a specific health condition is necessary, the certificate might be issued for a shorter duration. If needed, recommendations for ongoing medical care or follow-up evaluations will be provided to ensure your continued fitness for duty.
