Our doctors test for key fitness indicators including cardiac health, vision, neurological conditions, and sleep disorders. Most appointments take approximately 30 minutes, and we provide you with the completed paperwork immediately so you can submit your application to the DVLA without delay.

FAQs & Pricing for our Durham Clinic

What do I need to bring to my Durham medical appointment?

Please bring your valid Passport or Driving License as photo ID, your relevant medical forms (e.g., D4 form or Taxi form), and a list of any current medications. If you wear glasses for driving, you must bring your latest optician’s prescription to ensure we can accurately complete the vision section of your medical.

Can I get a same-day appointment in Durham?

Yes, we specialize in short-notice and emergency bookings. We understand that license renewals or job offers often come with tight deadlines, so we maintain flexible slots in Durham to accommodate urgent requests. Call our 7-day support line to check today’s availability.

How long will I have to wait for my medical results?

For the vast majority of our medicals, including HGV and Taxi assessments, your results are issued immediately. Our doctors complete the paperwork and hand it to you at the end of your appointment, allowing you to post your application the same day.

Are your medicals accepted by Durham County Council?

Yes. Because our medicals are conducted by GMC-registered doctors, our assessments meet the criteria for the DVLA and most local authorities. However, we always recommend checking if your specific council requires you to use their “own” GP, though many now accept private GMC-registered providers.

Do you offer weekend medicals in Durham?

Absolutely. We recognize that many professional drivers are on the road from Monday to Friday. To support the local workforce, we offer evening and weekend slots in Durham, allowing you to complete your medical without taking time off work.

What happens if I have an underlying medical condition?

Being diagnosed with a condition like high blood pressure or diabetes does not automatically mean you will fail your medical. Our GMC-registered doctors in Durham are experts in assessing how conditions are managed. For example, if your blood pressure is high on the day, we can often provide advice or a re-test once it is controlled. Our goal is to help you stay on the road safely, so we provide clear, professional guidance on the steps needed to meet the required fitness standards if any issues are identified during the exam.
