DOT Physicals at Dublin Square and Mack Road in Asheboro, NC

Triad Internal Medicine is committed to ensuring the health and safety of commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers through comprehensive DOT physical examinations. These exams are crucial for assessing the physical and mental fitness of drivers, in compliance with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations. Our practice provides these essential evaluations to support interstate commerce and public safety.
 
At Triad Internal Medicine, our certified medical examiners conduct thorough DOT physicals, focusing on key health areas critical to safe driving. The examination encompasses a detailed review of the driver’s medical history and a series of tests, including vision and hearing assessments, blood pressure checks, and evaluations of cardiovascular and neurological health. We also screen for substance abuse and other medical conditions that might impair driving capabilities.

The process begins with an in-depth discussion of the driver’s medical history, covering previous conditions, medications, surgeries, and any symptoms that could impact driving. Vision and hearing tests ensure drivers meet the necessary standards, with allowances for corrective lenses or hearing aids if needed. We also evaluate cardiovascular health through blood pressure and pulse measurements and may conduct a urinalysis to detect potential issues like diabetes or kidney problems. Additional assessments are tailored based on individual health history and any symptoms noted during the exam.

Drivers who meet all health criteria receive a Medical Examiner’s Certificate from Triad Internal Medicine, valid for up to two years. If health concerns arise that could affect safe driving, we may issue a certificate with a shorter validity or recommend further tests or treatments to achieve certification.
