DOT Physicals

dot-physicals

The Department of Transportation requires regular physical exams to ensure safety on the roads. This physical exam must be completed by a licensed medical examiner. FastTrack Immediate Care has staff that are able to complete the DOT Physical Exam so that you can be cleared to drive safely.

There are some medical restrictions you should know regarding obtaining your DOT medical certificate.

If you take injectable insulin for diabetes, there are restrictions to obtain a commercial drivers license
Must have 20/40 vision, though wearing glasses or contact lenses is permitted
No use of narcotics, amphetamines or other habit forming substances

You will be asked to provide your medical history. It is important to answer all questions truthfully as legal action could be pursued if information is found false.

The components of the physical exam include:

  • Vital Signs- pulse, blood pressure, temperature
  • Vision test
  • Examine eyes, ears, nose, mouth and throat
  • Listen to heart and lungs
  • Perform an abdominal assessment
  • Check for spine deformities
  • Neurological exam
  • Perform a hernia check

After the history and physical are complete, your FastTrack Immediate Care provider will discuss potential hazards on the job and compile all of the data to determine if you meet the requirements to receive the DOT medical certificate. If you meet the standards, your certificate will be valid for two years, if your provider believes you need further monitoring, you may be issued a certificate for a shorter period of time.

FastTrack is here to facilitate this process and make it convenient to obtain your DOT physical exam and DOT medical certificate. Please contact us at 800-811-7369 to set up an appointment or you can be seen on a walk-in basis at any of our clinics!
