Drivers Licence Medicals – Commercial and Private

Commercial Drivers Licence Medicals are routinely carried out by all of our doctors at the centre. Please advise reception at the time of booking for sufficient time for paperwork completion as well as time with both nurse and doctor.

Commercial Drivers Licence Medicals are not covered by Medicare, however we will provide you with a tax invoice for your records.

 

Private Licence medicals are required to be completed once reaching 75 years of age. They are also required if you develop a permanent or long-term condition which may affect your ability to drive safely. If you are uncertain about your medical condition and the impact it may have on your ability to drive safely, we recommend that you consult your doctor. 

Some of the more common medical conditions that are likely to affect your ability to drive safely include:

  • diabetes
  • eye or vision problems
  • heart disease
  • neurological – dementia, stroke, seizures or epilepsy
  • psychiatric disorders
  • sleep disorders
  • alcohol or drug dependency
The transport department is conveniently located within 100 metres of our medical practice.
