What are physicals?

Physicals are often required for certain jobs or activities to ensure safety. At our office we do sports and youth physicals. We also perform DOT physicals for CDL licensing. Physicals often involve a blood pressure check, urinalysis, and a vision test.

DOT Physicals

DOT physicals are necessary to receive a CDL license and must be retaken every two years. This ensures that drivers of heavy machinery are medically fit to do so. DOT exams have specific federal requirements that must be adhered to.

Sports Physicals

Sports physicals are important to ensure there are no health conditions that would make it dangerous to participate in a sport. Athletic injuries are common, but a proper checkup can spot problems that could make someone more prone to injury.
