Sheriff, any reason why you had to pay for your physical, yet others didnt? What did the physical consist of? Hold & Cough, piss test, etc? How much did you have to pay for your physical?

I'm not sure why I had to pay and others didn't. I assume it's a difference in the recruiter. Mine told me I had to have everything done before I attended the class. Some did and some didn't. Get your physical at a Swift approved Dr. If you don't you may end up having to get another one when you get to the academy.
The Physical cost $68 and was a pretty basic physical. There is a pee test but the doc only looks at it to see if it looks ok and isn't cloudy or thick. There is a basic eye exam, whisper test, BP, and yes you get the old "turn your head and cough." After that the Dr. goes over the paperwork you filled out and asks about any medications you are on. Don't hold anything back when asked about meds. -
