Yep kind of high. Yet for some here, it may make sense to have your physical done some place that rushed them through.

What is a "real" clinic. 99% of DOT Physicals are done by a Physicians Assistant or Nurse Practitioner anyways. Those are the people that staff those CVS and Walgreens clinics. Practically every Urgent Care Center is the same. In reality a Medical Tech could do a DOT Physical. It certainly is not a very in depth "exam". If it was, 1/2 of the drivers out here could not pass one. It is almost a "formality". Just my opinion, which is worth exactly what you paid for it
buddyd157 and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
That is abso-effing-luteley right. Concentra is the WORST! They are in the back pocket of almost every mid to large employer in the Country. I have yet to speak to one person who has said, "Wow, I was just at Concentra, what a GREAT place!" Lolbuddyd157 and Rideandrepair Thank this.

Maybe so, but 109 bucks for something that lasts two years isn't much to spend.
You do the math, I'm too busy...109 bucks for two years...how much a day is that physical costing you?
I'll bet you spend more money on coffee and candy bars every year.dirttrackercm23, Rideandrepair and Dockbumper Thank this. -
I'll bet lots of drivers spend $109.00 on coffee, sodas and candy bars in less than a month!REO6205, Warrior Pump and Rideandrepair Thank this.

Neither of the cvs’s that I went to the past 4-6 years didn’t do a hernia check
Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
They have cracked down on BP and medical history. Depending on the Dr. they can give 3 mo. to 2 yr. cert. It’s up to their discretion, from what I understand. Used to be if you could walk in, you passed.

That's too bad......did you ask for one!! Lol
nikmirbre and Rideandrepair Thank this. -

I keep waiting for the time that Veterans Affairs providers can do these physicals. This has already been done, for some reason, it's not happening. Of course, I no longer drive, but if I were still an active driver I would be using the VA if I could, none of that OSA BS! All my medical history is right there for the provider! Every Veteran that uses TTR should continue to monitor these developments!
Rideandrepair Thanks this.
