Our Services Across Massachusetts
Our DOT physicals follow the latest FMCSA guidance so you can qualify with confidence. Exams include vision, hearing, vitals, a focused physical evaluation, and urinalysis (screening for medical conditions—not a drug test). We complete the Medical Examiner’s Certificate (MEC) when you qualify and ensure it aligns with National Registry standards recognized by the Massachusetts RMV.
We also help you understand federal standards (49 CFR §391.41) and advisory criteria used by examiners—so there are no surprises at renewal time. [ecfr.gov]

From new‑hire screenings to return‑to‑work evaluations, respirator clearances, and wellness consults, we tailor services for fleets, contractors, and public agencies across the state.
How We Serve the Whole Commonwealth
Based in Worcester, we’re central to everywhere you drive—Boston, Framingham, Marlborough, Fitchburg/Leominster, Auburn, Shrewsbury, Springfield, Pioneer Valley, North Shore, and the South Coast. If your drivers cross state lines or remain intrastate, we understand the nuance:
- Interstate drivers must meet federal physical qualification standards and be examined by an FMCSA‑listed medical examiner.
- Massachusetts intrastate drivers may, in certain cases, use RMV medical waivers when appropriate; we’ll guide you to the right forms and steps.
We also track how the RMV verifies medical certifications electronically via the National Registry—so your status doesn’t lapse due to paperwork gaps.
What Makes Massachusetts Unique—and How That Helps You
Massachusetts has a little of everything: urban density, coastal weather, mountain routes, and winter conditions that test any schedule. We design our processes to be efficient in all seasons and keep you compliant with up‑to‑date FMCSA guidance—including practical examiner considerations from the 2024 Medical Examiner’s Handbook.
That means when you book CDL & DOT Physical Exams in Massachusetts, you’ll get care that respects both the letter of the law and the realities of life on the road.
Preparing for Your Exam (Simple Checklist)
- Bring your driver’s license and any prior MEC if available.
- Glasses/contacts and hearing aids, if you use them (examiners check corrected vision/hearing). [ecfr.gov]
- Medication list and any specialist notes (cardiology, sleep, endocrine, etc.).
- If you take medications for pain, psychiatric conditions, ADHD, or smoking cessation, bring a letter from your treating clinician confirming your treatment is stable and does not interfere with safe CMV operation. This helps the examiner document a well‑supported decision consistent with FMCSA guidance.
- For conditions like hypertension, diabetes, sleep apnea, bring recent readings, device compliance reports, or logs. Examiners use FMCSA standards and guidance (e.g., BP thresholds and certificate durations) to determine certification periods.
Pro tip: Keeping records organized often means a faster exam and fewer follow‑ups.
