Booking Your HGV & PCV Medical

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) [

requires HGV Drivers to have a good level of health to enable them to legally operate commercial vehicles on public roads.

To complete a HGV medical or PCV medical in you are required to be assessed by a doctor who will confirm that you are fit to drive a heavy goods vehicle.

Low-cost Driver medicals, we are local, competent & our experienced doctors will complete your driver medical at a time to suit you.

There is a lot to consider when it comes to getting or renewing your HGV Drivers licence. Probably the largest hurdle among inexperienced or experienced commercial Drivers hoping to secure or renew their licence is the HGV medical exam.
