What to Expect During Your DOT Exam In Sioux City IA

A DOT physical is a federally mandated exam required by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). The process is simple and consists of three key steps:

1. Medical History: You’ll start by completing a brief medical history form. This includes information about past or current health conditions, surgeries, medications, and family history of chronic illnesses.
2. The Physical Examination: Dr. Cole Miller will conduct a comprehensive physical exam to evaluate your overall fitness to safely operate a commercial motor vehicle. The exam includes:
   • Height and weight check
   • Blood pressure and pulse rate
   • Vision and hearing tests
   • Range of motion assessment
   • Basic urinalysis (checks for signs of underlying medical conditions)
     Respiratory and cardiovascular evaluation
3. Paperwork and Certification: Once your exam is complete, we’ll fill out the required forms and provide you with:
   • A copy of your completed Medical Examiner’s Certificate (DOT medical card)
   • A second copy for your employer
   • A digital record stored securely in our system

If your company requires a copy, please bring the appropriate fax number or contact information with you to the appointment.
