Driver medicals carried out by GMC-registered doctors in Newark

When it comes to driving as a profession, it is crucial for drivers to prioritize their health and fitness. This includes ensuring that they are medically fit to operate heavy goods vehicles (HGVs). In order to obtain the necessary category on their license, drivers must undergo a HGV Medical exam. Subsequent check-ups will be required at specific intervals, such as when they reach the age of 45 and every 5 years thereafter until the age of 65. Beyond 65, annual medical examinations become mandatory. At Simply Medicals, we offer convenient, competent, and cost-effective driver medical services. Our process is more affordable and efficient compared to traditional doctor and optician visits.
