Finding an FMCSA-certified medical examiner
Use the official National Registry search by city, state or ZIP code, then contact a listed examiner directly to confirm appointment availability and the exam details the driver should bring.
After an examination, confirm that the driver identification details on the report are correct and that the applicable medical-certification evidence reaches the right record. Keep a process for investigating mismatches or missing updates. A clinic receipt confirms attendance, rather than proving that every qualification record is complete.
DOT physical appointments and medical-certification records for drivers in San Antonio
Texas DPS separates the driver’s self-certified operating category from the medical examination and resulting licensing record. Texas CDL holders should check that category when their work changes. Drivers examined in Texas with an out-of-state CDL should check the instructions of their own licensing agency.
Have identification ready, the examiner’s requested health and medication information, and any requested specialist reports for secure review. The certified examiner decides medical qualification. Check the current CDL or non-CDL evidence requirements, including any applicable exception or exemption.
When comparing providers serving San Antonio, ask about the examiner’s National Registry listing, appointment availability, records to bring and how the result will be reported.
For more detail, read our dot physical exams guide and DOT compliance services in Texas. Check the FMCSA National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners for the underlying requirements. See also Texas CDL record guidance.

DOT compliance questions for San Antonio
Who can perform a DOT physical examination?
When the federal interstate medical-examination requirement applies, use a certified medical examiner listed on the FMCSA National Registry. Check the examiner’s current listing before booking.
Does a non-CDL driver need a DOT physical?
Some non-CDL drivers are covered by the federal medical requirements. The answer depends on the vehicle and operation, not only on whether the driver holds a CDL.
How long will my medical certificate last?
The examiner decides the certification outcome and appropriate period within the applicable rules. A service provider cannot guarantee a full-length certificate or a pass.
Should a CDL driver rely only on a paper medical card?
Under NRII, the CDLIS medical-certification record is normally the electronic record used for CDL/CLP drivers. As checked September 9, 2026, FMCSA’s temporary exemption runs through October 11, 2026 and allows eligible interstate CDL/CLP holders and motor carriers to rely on a paper Medical Examiner’s Certificate for up to 60 days after issuance. Recheck the FMCSA NRII guidance after that date.
Can the actual DOT physical examination be done online?
The physical examination requires an in-person appointment with a qualified medical examiner. Online booking, record administration or general advice should not be confused with the examination itself.
Are the listed providers based in San Antonio?
The listings reflect declared service coverage for Texas; they do not prove a clinic in San Antonio or a current appointment. Confirm the examination location and verify the medical examiner’s current National Registry listing.
