You need to undergo a D4 medical if you want to get or renew your Group 2 (HGV, LGV or PCV) driving licence. This test proves that you meet the DVLA’s health requirements for professional drivers.
We do D4 medicals fast and efficiently at SimplyMedicals, but being prepared can make your appointment go even more smoothly.
What to Bring to Your D4 Medical Visit
To make sure your visit goes smoothly, be sure to bring the following:
- A valid driver’s license or passport is a form of photo ID.
- If you wear glasses or contacts while driving, bring them with you to the eye test.
- Your current prescription, especially if you just had your eyes checked.
- D4 form – You can download this from the DVLA website or request one when you book.
- Bring a list of any regular prescriptions you take, along with the doses.
- Medical records: If you have a long-term health problem, old medical papers can be helpful.
Getting things ready ahead of time saves your time and makes sure your form is filled out correctly.
Getting Ready for Your Appointment
Try to get enough sleep, stay away from too much coffee or alcohol, and bring a bottle of water with you the day of your D4 medical. Wear clothes that are comfortable because your blood pressure will be monitored.
If you have diabetes, heart problems, or sleep apnoea, make sure your diseases are well-managed and bring any relevant findings from specialists.
At SimplyMedicals, our knowledgeable doctors help you with every part of the test, from checking your eyesight to your blood pressure to your overall health.

We make sure that your form is filled out correctly and clearly at SimplyMedicals so that processing doesn’t take longer than it needs to.
We also provide flexible appointment times and prices that are hard to beat, so your D4 medical will be quick, easy, and stress-free.
