Being compliant with Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations is essential for maintaining your CDL and keeping your career on track. At Braxton Medical Clinic, we make DOT physicals simple, efficient, and stress-free, helping you stay certified.
What is a DOT Physical?
A DOT physical is a mandatory medical exam required by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) for all commercial drivers. The goal of this exam is to ensure drivers are healthy enough to safely operate commercial vehicles.
What Does a DOT Physical Include?
During your DOT physical at Braxton Medical Clinic, our certified medical examiner will evaluate:
- Vision and Hearing: To ensure you meet FMCSA standards.
- Blood Pressure and Pulse Rate: To check for high blood pressure or other cardiovascular issues.
- Urinalysis: To test for underlying medical conditions such as diabetes.
- General Health: Including a review of your medical history, weight, and overall physical health.
We also address any specific concerns you may have about your health and its impact on your ability to drive safely.
