Driver medicals carried out by GMC-registered doctors in Derby
When it comes to driving as a profession, safety should always be a top priority. This is why drivers, particularly those handling Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs), need to ensure they are fit enough to operate their vehicles. One important aspect of this is undergoing a HGV Medical examination. This medical check-up is essential for obtaining the appropriate category on your licence. Additionally, regular repeat check-ups are required as you age, with intervals set at 45, every 5 years until 65, and then annually from thereon. At Simply Medicals, we understand the importance of convenience, competence, and cost-efficiency when it comes to driver medicals. Our services are not only more affordable than visiting your doctor and optician separately, but we also ensure a quick and hassle-free experience for our clients. With over 30 locations across the West Midlands, South Wales, and Bristol area, we provide accessible and comprehensive medical services to meet the needs of drivers in the region.
