DOT Physicals are a federal requirement designed to make sure commercial drivers are medically fit to safely operate large vehicles. As your neighbors in Iowa, we understand the importance of keeping our roads safe while helping drivers maintain their livelihoods.
We make this process quick and stress-free while helping you stay on the road. Our providers ensure you:
Book your DOT exam with our trusted local providers and drive with confidence knowing you’ve met every safety standard.
You’ll need a DOT physical in several situations to ensure compliance and safety:
Every CDL holder must pass a DOT physical to verify that they meet the health and safety standards set by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). This is required both for first-time applicants and for drivers renewing their license.
If you operate a vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) over 10,000 lbs for business purposes, a valid DOT medical certificate is mandatory to confirm you can safely handle the demands of commercial driving.
Many transportation companies and insurers require up-to-date DOT physical documentation to maintain coverage, employment eligibility, and safety compliance. Call 800-313-3816 for more information. Note: We need existing accounts with employers for workers comp services — please have your employer contact us to set up an account.
If you’ve been sidelined due to a medical condition, surgery, or extended leave, you’ll likely need a DOT physical to confirm you’re medically cleared to resume driving.

DOT exams are often just one part of staying certified and safe on the road. At QuickVisit Urgent Care, we make it easy to take care of related occupational health needs in a single visit:
Many employers require drug and alcohol testing alongside DOT physicals. We provide both DOT-compliant and standard screenings with fast, accurate results to keep you in compliance. On-site drug screens available with immediate results for most tests. DOT drug screens are sent off to our lab partner. Results for send-off drug screens take around 7 days to result.
Staying current with immunizations is critical for drivers who face outdoor work, travel, or exposure risks. We offer Tetanus Vaccines (Td and DTaP) for an additional $75 when needed, as well as seasonal flu shots to help prevent illness and downtime.
If your DOT exam identifies a health concern, we’ll arrange follow-up visits or direct referrals to specialists — ensuring your certification process isn’t delayed.
Take care of everything at once with our full range of occupational health services or contact your local clinic directly to schedule multiple services together.
How long does the DOT physical take?
Most exams are completed in less than 45 minutes, with a goal of door-to-door time around an hour.
Do I need an appointment?
It’s best to call ahead to schedule your DOT physical with a certified provider at your chosen location.
