You can no longer use a clinic that is on the national registry. You have to go exactly where they want you to go. What a joke.
So swift now requires you to go to CerteDrive clinic to take your DOT physical.

joshuapowell61, CatesCube, austinmike and 1 other person Thank this. -
sooner or later, you will have to go to the company locations (terminals) no matter where you live, and they will bus loads of drivers to thier own spayshell clinic....
then toss you out, all on your own, to get home, if you fail..aussiejosh Thanks this. -
I've been with Swift for over 12 years, and I have always been told which clinic to use.
There never has been a choice, for company drivers at least.joshuapowell61, aussiejosh, Lonesome and 5 others Thank this. -
i have went to a clinic of my choice the last 3years with no issues.
but i do pay out of my own pocket..
jurupa valley send drivers to concentra which swift paysAlbertaflatbed, MACK E-6 and Moosetek13 Thank this. -
My company tells us where we have to go. Big deal. They pay for it, they can dictate where I go. As it is, there is a Concentra place within walking distance (I've walked there several times before) from our yard.
Northern Nomad and Albertaflatbed Thank this. -
It was that way when I was there, both for drug tests and biennial physicals. It's an overreach in my opinion, but it certainly isn't uncommon.
For that matter, I think it's just crazy that the Department of Transportation gets to certify that a licensed doctor is qualified to do a physical exam. -
That’s how it is at my place.
You can get it done wherever you want, but if you want the company to pick up the tab for it you have to go to their clinic.austinmike, Albertaflatbed and dptrucker Thank this. -
It’s not a big deal going to a place the company wants until you get caught up in the cpap scam. Then your license gets held hostage until you comply.
'88K100, Speedy356, Aamcotrans and 5 others Thank this. -
I complied and my quality of life in 10x better.JOHNQPUBLIC Thanks this.
