Services Provided

• DOT driver exams: As part of our dedication to comprehensive patient care, Tucker Chiropractic Center offers DOT exams for commercial driver’s licenses and physicals for drivers who don’t require a CDL but who haul enough weight to require 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 it’s required by your company. Drug and alcohol testing requires a separate test and is not included in the cost of a basic DOT exam.

• Pain management: We’ve seen lots of repetitive strain injuries in the drivers that have come through our clinic. On top of DOT exams for drivers, we also offer regular chiropractic services to help relieve pain in your back, neck, shoulders, hips, and legs.

• To make things as convenient for you as possible you can schedule an appointment to guarantee availability at a specific time.

MEET THE DOCTOR

Our doctors at Tucker Chiropractic Center are 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 he’ll 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.

PREPARING FOR YOUR PHYSICAL

A DOT physical at Tucker Chiropractic 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’ve been diagnosed with, prepare a list of medications and the name of the prescribing doctor, and take note of any medical devices that you require.

On the day of the exam, you'll have to bring all of this with you. Here's a checklist of things you should bring (where applicable):

• Photo identification

• Medical records

• List of medications, including strength and dosage, for both prescription and over-the counter drugs

• Eye glasses

• Hearing aids

• Copy of your most recent stress test (for heart conditions)

• Copy of your A1C if a diabetic

• Copy of your latest sleep test result (for sleep apnea)

• Contact information, including names, phone numbers, and fax numbers for all your doctors

Right before your exam: Make sure you drink a glass of water and come in with a full bladder, as you will have to provide a urine sample.
