Oakes, ND DOT Physical - What You Need to Know

A DOT physical is an all-encompassing health assessment mandated for every commercial motor vehicle operator by the Department of Transportation. This evaluation verifies that drivers are in the right physical, mental, and emotional condition to manage large vehicles safely on roads. Conducted by a certified medical examiner from the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners, a successful result grants a DOT medical certificate needed to keep a CDL valid under FMCSA rules. For assistance with other DOT agency regulations, call us at 800-221-4291.

  • Blood Pressure & Heart Disease: Unchecked hypertension (≥180/110 mmHg), recent heart incidents, stroke, ongoing angina, or lack of clearance for an implanted defibrillator.

This is by far the easiest

This is by far the easiest way to get my lab work ordered and paid for. The phone calls are short and to the point. They don’t try to push extra sales on you and when I walk in to the clinic I simply show my donor pass and with in a matter of minutes I’m done. I will continue to use ADT in the future.

Jason Jackson - 7/19/2025
