Start with the official guidance
Use a driver-focused overview to orient yourself before you discuss your individual situation with a qualified medical professional.
Clear guidance. Confident drives.
Know the guidance before your DOT physical.
DOTReady helps commercial drivers make sense of DOT medical-clearance information before an initial physical or renewal—so you can show up prepared to ask better questions.
Informational only—DOTReady does not provide medical advice, issue DOT medical cards, or guarantee certification.

Prepare useful questions
Review practical questions and a document checklist before your appointment, renewal, or conversation with a certified medical examiner.
03
Verify time-sensitive details
Confirm requirements against current FMCSA information. DOTReady is a preparation resource, not the deciding authority.

Before you get started
No. A qualified medical examiner determines medical qualification and may issue a Medical Examiner’s Certificate. DOTReady does not issue cards or make certification decisions.
