MEET DR. ROSY GILL
MEET GARY
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration certified medical examiner
We have been working with and examining drivers for years and understand how important it is that you pass your test. We also know how improved lifestyle choices and healthier habits can protect your livelihood, and we'll be glad to discuss these options with you during your exam.
DOT Physical Three Step Process
A DOT exam is a simple and hassle-free three-step process that involves taking your medical history, performing the exam, and filling out all the necessary paperwork.
Step One: Medical History
To provide an idea of your general health and family background, you'll be asked to fill out a brief one-page medical history detailing past illnesses, diseases that run in your family, and your overall health.
Step Two: The Exam
Once you've provided your medical history our team will review the information you've provided, go over any medical conditions you may have, and perform a basic urinalysis test.
As part of the exam, we'll also:
- Measure your height
- Weigh you
- Take your blood pressure and pulse
- Test your range of motion
- Examine your eyes and ears
- Check your breathing
- Other system organ functions
- Go over your analysis
Step Three: Paperwork
The final step in the process is the paperwork. Once your medical history and exam are complete, the office will fill out all the necessary paperwork to process the exam results. When you leave the office you'll get a copy of the exam to take with you. We also keep a PDF copy of the exam in our office. Paperwork will automatically be electronically submitted to the appropriate state DMV for all commercial drivers through the FMCSA National Registry NRII database. After all of the paperwork has been completed, you'll get your DOT medical certificate and a wallet card to keep with you at all times.

NO White Coats!
We understand that lots of people don't like doctors, hospitals, and medical exams and that anticipating your appointment may elevate your blood pressure. But we work with drivers all day, and understand how important it is for you to pass your DOT exam. To help prepare yourself for the appointment, here are things you can do in the days and weeks leading up to your exam:
- Take your medication every day as prescribed and on schedule.
- If you forget a dose, take it as soon as possible if that's what your doctor recommends.
- Tell our team if you've recently missed a dose so that we can recheck your blood pressure.
- Reduce your caffeine, nicotine, sugar, and salt consumption.
- Remember, you won't actually find a single white coat in our clinic!
