    Most of those "minute clinics" do not have an actual doctor, they are usually LPN's or Nurse Practitioners and are trained only to handle small non life threatening illnesses.

    pretty sure they can handle dishing out BP candy. I worked with my doc's RN more than I did with my doc on getting mine under control.

    ATTENTION....NEWS FLASH. Getting a DOT physical, IS, minor in nature. Nothing extravagant about it, even a caveman can do it !

    Yup me too, but the doctor is there behind the scene writing the actual scripts and conferring with the RN....not how it works at a minute clinic.

    Anything over XXX/90 will need to be medicated. Anything below that and you can get a 2 year certificate.

    The military will not take me for a number of reasons, my BP is the least of them.
