Brackettville, TX DOT Physical - What You Need to Know

A DOT physical examination is a detailed health check mandated by the Department of Transportation (DOT) for all commercial motor vehicle (CMV) operators. This test confirms that drivers have the physical, mental, and emotional capability to safely manage large vehicles on public highways. Conducted by a certified medical examiner (CME) listed in the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners (NRCME), passing the examination grants drivers a DOT medical certificate, also known as a Medical Examiner's Certificate or DOT medical card, necessary to uphold a valid CDL license as per FMCSA standards. If another DOT agency regulates you and you require guidance on which DOT physical you need, contact us at 800-221-4291.

During your exam, the medical examiner will complete a thorough health assessment to determine if you meet the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) medical standards. The process typically includes:

Customer Reviews

Saved My CDL!

Time was running out before my Cdl got downgraded because of a violation I had on clearinghouse. I couldn't find an employer to send me for my return to duty test, but these guys had my test scheduled and done in the same day! They saved my cdl. Thank you again!
