DOT Physical Exam - CDL License

DOT physical exam in Houston, TX for CDL license, same-day certificate, in Spanish. With affordable pricing.

Anyone driving a commercial vehicle needs a current medical card, the certificate you earn by passing the DOT physical. At Clínica Hispana Cruz 4 we do it without an appointment, with each step explained in Spanish or English, and if everything checks out you leave with your certificate the same day.

What the examiner checks

Eyesight: 20/40 or better per eye (corrective lenses allowed) plus red, green and amber recognition
Hearing: a whispered voice at five feet, with or without a hearing aid
Blood pressure and pulse
A urine dipstick screening for kidney or sugar problems
Heart, lungs, abdomen, spine and reflexes
The medical history you fill out on the federal form

How long the card lasts

Up to two years when everything is in range. When the examiner wants to keep an eye on something like blood pressure or diabetes, the card can be issued for a shorter term. That isn't a denial: it means coming back sooner to show it's still under control.

Living with diabetes, hypertension or sleep apnea?

Take your medications as usual on exam day; skipping them raises blood pressure and shortens the card. If you use insulin, bring the federal form for insulin-treated drivers, completed by your treating clinician no more than 45 days earlier. If you use CPAP, bring the usage report. If your numbers run high, we can follow up in our chronic care program so you're in better shape at the next exam.

What to bring

Driver's license
The glasses or hearing aid you drive with
A medication list with doses
Reports from your specialists, if you have a condition

Built for drivers

We're open seven days until 9 at night, so the exam doesn't cost you a workday.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. If the exam checks out, you leave with the certificate at the end of the visit.

Because there's something the examiner wants to recheck soon, usually blood pressure or diabetes. Keep it under control and you may get a longer certificate at the next exam.

No. The urine test in the DOT physical looks for protein, blood and sugar. The drug test is separate and ordered by the employer; we also do it if you're asked for one.
