Your Trusted Destination for DOT Physical Charlotte NC

 

All cdl and non-cdl drivers are required to have a valid DOT exam and DOT medical certificate in order to operate a truck over the road.  Dr. Kevin Lyons, a certified medical examiner for the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), has been providing top-notch DOT physical and DOT drug testing services in Charlotte for over 13 years. He performs DOT physical exams for truck drivers and all CDL drivers and non-CDL drivers. You can find our office in North Charlotte off of I-77 near many trucking companies including Wilson, Holland, YRC, Estes, Knight, AAA Cooper, and XPO Logistics.  Located on the corner of West WT Harris Blvd and Old Statesville Rd in North Charlotte, Beyond Wellness is a convenient location for cdl and non-cdl drivers alike.

 

We understand the importance of maintaining your commercial driver’s license and ensuring your overall well-being, which is why we are dedicated to serving both CDL and non-CDL drivers. 

As of May 2014, all CDL drivers must receive a DOT physical exam from a certified medical doctor (CRME) that is listed on the FMCSA’s website only. A DOT physical exam includes a health history, vision and hearing test, and physical exam. A urine sample will also be taken to test for protein, glucose, specific gravity (urine to water ratio), and whether blood is present.

Located conveniently between I-77 and I-85 in North Charlotte NC, Beyond Wellness Chiropractic Center is strategically positioned to serve the needs of commercial drivers in and around the Charlotte NC area. 

 

We are in close proximity to major trucking companies such as XPO Logistics, Holland, Yellow, and Estes, making it easy for you to access our services without any hassles. For the convenience of our 18-wheeler drivers, we offer ample parking space right behind our office.

 

Unlike other clinics where you sit and wait hours and hours for your CDL physical exam, our office values your time. That is why we have a no wait policy.  From start to finish, the CDL physical should take no longer than thirty minutes to complete. You can get back on the road as quickly as possible. Just be sure to bring the current medication list with you. If you are on a CPAP machine, a printout of the 30-day usage report is required. Be sure to bring this information with you to the physical exam. We provide the medical forms for you or you can print them off at your convenience from the FMCSA website.  Simply bring the forms with you to your DOT physical appointment.

Why a Comprehensive DOT Physical Matters

 A DOT physical is not just a formality; it’s a crucial step in ensuring that you are fit to operate a commercial vehicle safely. Let’s delve deeper into the components of a comprehensive FMCSA DOT physical examination.

Driver Health History: Driver health history is an essential component of the FMCSA DOT physical. This aspect of the examination involves a comprehensive review of your medical background, including any chronic conditions, surgeries, medications, and medical history.

 

We take into account your health history to assess its impact on your current ability to safely operate a commercial vehicle. By considering your health history, we can identify potential risks or conditions that may require additional evaluation or monitoring the FMCSA may require.

 

Eye Test: Your vision is one of the most important factors in road safety pertaining to the FMCSA cdl physical. The eye exam checks your visual acuity and peripheral vision to confirm that you have adequate eyesight to adequately operate a commercial motor vehicle.
 
 
Hearing Test: Good hearing is essential for effective communication on the road. The FMCSA hearing test assesses your ability to hear and respond to horns, sirens, and other auditory cues while operating a commercial motor vehicle.
 
 
Urinalysis: This part of the DOT exam involves a urinalysis to check for specific gravity, protein, sugar, and blood. These tests help identify potential health issues and ensure that you are free from conditions that may compromise your ability to drive a truck safely.
 
 
Blood Pressure Reading: High blood pressure is a common health concern as a truck driver, and it’s important to monitor it regularly. We assess your blood pressure to confirm that it is within acceptable limits for safe driving as outlined by the FMCSA.
 
 
Height and Weight Measurement: Proper weight management is essential for overall health as a commercial truck driver.  Height is considered in the calculation of Body Mass Index (BMI), which can be an indicator of other health concerns, such as sleep apnea.
 
 
General Physical Examination: This comprehensive assessment evaluates your overall health and physical condition to ensure that you can operate a truck safely.
 
 
By addressing these critical aspects, the FMCSA DOT physical goes beyond mere compliance; it prioritizes your health, safety, and ability to excel in your career as a commercial driver.
