Certified DOT Physical Exam Process

What to Expect During an Examination

During a DOT Physical, certified examiners evaluate the health and physical aptitude of your employees, ensuring they meet all necessary safety and health criteria. Our comprehensive evaluations include:

  • Vision & Hearing Tests: Assessing the driver’s ability to see and hear clearly, which is crucial for safety. Our vision tests ensure compliance with the visual acuity standards set forth, while hearing tests are streamlined to detect any impairments that could impact driving performance.
  • Height & Weight Measurements: Ensuring drivers meet requirements based on current health standards, which is essential for calculating the Body Mass Index (BMI) to evaluate physical health and fitness.
  • Blood Pressure Examination: Monitoring heart health to prevent risk factors such as hypertension, which is critical in road safety and drivers' prolonged health.
  • Pulse & Breathing Rate Recording: Evaluating general health and fitness levels, crucial for determining cardiovascular and respiratory efficiency.
  • Comprehensive Urinalysis: Detecting any underlying medical conditions that could impact driving safety, such as diabetes or kidney disease, ensuring a complete health profile is assessed.
  • Heart Attack/Stroke Risk Assessment: Identifying potential risks to driver health by evaluating cholesterol levels, lifestyle factors, and family history for a comprehensive health overview.
