DOT Driver Exams
As part of our dedication to comprehensive patient care, Titan Medical Center offers DOT exams for commercial driver's licenses and physicals for drivers who do not require a CDL but haul enough weight to need a DOT exam.
DOT Drug and Alcohol Testing
A basic DOT exam does not include drug and alcohol testing, but it can be performed at the same time as your regular exam if your company requires it. Drug and alcohol testing requires a separate test and is not included in the cost of a basic DOT exam.
Pain Management
We have seen many repetitive strain injuries in the drivers who have come through our clinic. In addition to DOT exams for drivers, we offer regular chiropractic services to help relieve back, neck, shoulders, hips, and leg pain.
Walk-Ins and Appointments
Our DOT exams are appointment-free to make things as convenient as possible, and walk-ins are always welcome. However, you can also schedule an appointment to guarantee availability at a specific time.
Our team at Titan Medical Center is a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration-certified medical examiner. They have been working with and examining drivers for years and understand how important it is that you pass your test. They also know how improved lifestyle choices and healthier habits can protect your livelihood, and they will be glad to discuss these options with you during your exam.
What to Expect During Your DOT Exam
A DOT exam is a simple and hassle-free three-step process that involves taking your medical history, performing the exam, and filling out all the necessary paperwork.

Step 2
Step 3
Medical History
You will be asked to complete a brief one-page medical history detailing past illnesses, diseases, and overall health to provide an idea of your general health and family background.
The Exam
Once you have provided your medical history, our team will review the information you provided, go over any medical conditions you may have, and perform a basic urinalysis test. As part of the exam, he will also:
- Measure Your Height
- Weigh You
- Take Your Blood Pressure and Pulse
- Evaluate Your Range of Motion
- Examine Your Eyes and Ears
- Check Your Breathing
Paperwork
The final step in the process is the paperwork. Once your medical history and exam are complete, the office will fill out all the necessary paperwork to process the exam results. When you leave the office, you will get a copy of the exam to take with you when you get your CDL and a second copy to give to your company. We will also keep a scanned copy of the exam in your file at the office. After all the paperwork has been processed, you will get your very own DOT medical card to keep with you when driving.
Preparing for Your Physical
A DOT physical at Titan Medical Center only takes about 30 minutes. We accept cash, all major credit cards, and company checks. To prepare for the exam, compile all your medical records, put together a list of any medical conditions you have been diagnosed with, prepare a list of medications and the name of the prescribing doctor, and take note of any medical devices you require.
Things to Bring
On the exam day, you must bring all of this with you. Here is a checklist of things you should bring (where applicable):
- Photo identification

Tips on Managing Your Blood Pressure
We understand that lots of people do not like doctors, hospitals, and medical exams and that anticipating your appointment may elevate your blood pressure. But we work with drivers all day and understand how important it is for you to pass your DOT exam. To help prepare yourself for the appointment, here are things you can do in the days and weeks leading up to your exam:
- Take your medication every day as prescribed and on schedule.
- If you forget a dose, take it as soon as possible if your doctor recommends it.
- Tell our team if you have recently missed a dose so he can recheck your pressure later or the following day.
