DOT Drug Collection Site
DOT Exam Express offers DOT exams for commercial driver's licenses and physicals for drivers who don't require a CDL but who haul enough weight to require a DOT exam.
A basic DOT exam does not include drug testing, but it can be performed at the same time as your regular exam if it's required by your company.
Drug and alcohol testing requires a separate test and is not included in the cost of a basic DOT exam. $49.00 per test
To make things convenient for you, our DOT exams are appointment-free, & walk-ins are always welcome. However, you can also schedule an appointment to guarantee availability at a specific time.
When Does a DOT Physical Need Renewed?
Depending on the outcome of the physical, a certification can be valid for up to 2 years. However, if the medical provider determines that the driver has existing medical conditions that need to be monitored, they may need to certify them for less than 2 years. Common reasons for giving a 1 year certification include high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, or sleep apnea. In less common cases you may be given 3 month certification if a medical condition needs more immediate medical attention. To avoid a 3 month certification please take your prescriptions and/ or use your CPAP/ BiPAP as recommended by your physician.

Step One: Take the DOT Physical Exam
Once you provide your medical history, you'll be given your fast, efficient DOT exam
Step Two: Recieve Your DOT Medical Card
After we've processed the exam results, you'll get a copy of the exam to take with you when you get your CDL, and a second copy to give to your company. Then you'll get your very own DOT medical card to keep with you at all times when you're driving

Preparing For Your DOT Physical
A DOT physical at Maryland Spine Care only takes about 30 minutes. We accept cash, all major credit cards, and company checks. To prepare for the exam, compile all your medical records, put together a list of any medical conditions you’ve been diagnosed with, prepare a list of medications and the name of the prescribing doctor, and take note of any medical devices that you require.
On the day of the exam, you'll have to bring all of this with you. Here's a checklist of things you should bring (where applicable):
Photo identification
Medical records
List of medications, including strength and dosage, for both prescription and over-the counter drugs
Eye glasses or Hearing aids, if necessary
Copy of your last Cardiology evaluation including EKG & Stress Test (For Heart Conditions)
Most recent 90 days of CPAP results
(for sleep apnea)Contact information, including names, phone numbers, and fax numbers for all your doctors
Last A1C result (Diabetes)
Right before your exam: Make sure you drink a glass of water and come in with a full bladder, as you will have to provide a urine sample.
Tips on managing Your blood pressure
If you are having issues regulating your blood pressure, here are some helpful tips to help you get it under control.
Make sure you bring it up to us when you come in and we will get you on the right track!
No White Coats
We understand that lots of people don't like doctors, hospitals, and medical exams and that anticipating your appointment may elevate your blood pressure. But we work with drivers all day, and understand how important it is for you to pass your DOT exam. To help prepare yourself for the appointment, here are things you can do in the days and weeks leading up to your exam:
- Take your medication every day as prescribed and on schedule.
- If you forget a dose, take it as soon as possible if that's what your doctor recommends.
- Tell our team if you've recently missed a dose so that we can recheck your pressure later on or the following day.
- Reduce your caffeine, nicotine, sugar, and salt consumption.
- Remember, you won't actually find a single white coat in our clinic!
