FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Work Physicals
What is a work physical?
A work physical (also called a pre-employment physical or occupational health exam) is a medical examination required by many employers to ensure you’re healthy enough to perform job duties safely. It typically includes vital signs, a basic physical exam, medical history review, and completion of employer-specific forms.
How long does a work physical take?
Most work physicals take 20-30 minutes from check-in to completion. If your employer requires additional testing like drug screening, TB tests, or lab work, the visit may take 45-60 minutes total.
Do I need an appointment?
No. Walk-ins are welcome 7 days a week during business hours. You can also call ahead to let us know you’re coming, but appointments aren’t required.
What should I bring to my work physical?
Bring any forms or paperwork provided by your employer, a government-issued photo ID, your insurance card (if using insurance), a list of current medications, and payment method. If your employer didn’t give you forms, just bring their contact information and we can coordinate directly with HR.
How much does a work physical cost?
$75 for a standard work physical with no office visit charge. Additional testing (drug screening, TB test, X-rays, lab work) costs extra. We’ll tell you the total cost before we start any additional tests.
Does insurance cover work physicals?
Some insurance plans cover work physicals, but many don’t since they’re often considered pre-employment screening rather than medical treatment. We accept insurance, but most people choose our $75 self-pay rate because it’s faster and often cheaper than the insurance copay. We can verify your benefits if you’d like.
Can you complete my employer's specific forms?
Yes. Bring any forms provided by your employer and we’ll complete them during your visit. If your employer has specific requirements or needs forms faxed or emailed directly to HR, we can handle that too.
What if I have a pre-existing condition or take medications?
That’s fine. Work physicals don’t disqualify you from employment just because you have a health condition. We document your current health status and any accommodations you might need. Bring a list of your medications and conditions so we can accurately complete your paperwork.
Do you do DOT physicals for commercial drivers?
DOT physicals for commercial truck drivers require a certified medical examiner and follow specific federal guidelines. Our work physicals are for general employment, not DOT certification. If you need a DOT physical, please call us and we can refer you to a certified examiner.
Can I get drug screening done at the same time?
Yes. We offer drug screening for $60. If your employer requires both a physical and drug test, we can complete everything during one visit. The drug screen is a urine test, and results are typically available within 24-48 hours (we’ll send them directly to your employer if requested).
What if I need a TB test or chest X-ray for work?
We offer TB skin tests for $50 and chest X-rays for $80. Both can be completed during your work physical visit. TB tests require a return visit in 48-72 hours for reading, while X-ray results are available same-day.
How soon can I start work after my physical?
You’ll walk out with completed clearance forms the same day. Most employers accept them immediately, though some may require additional processing time on their end. If your physical includes lab work or drug screening, those results typically take 1-2 business days.
