Every location on this page has at least one examiner listed on the FMCSA National Registry, which is the only credential that matters. A family doctor who is not on the registry cannot issue your card, no matter how long you have been going there.
The largest roster in West Des Moines belongs to DoctorsNow with 4 certified examiners. More examiners on staff usually means a better chance of being seen the day you call.
Bring your ID, a full medication list, and anything your condition requires: a CPAP compliance report for sleep apnea, recent A1C for diabetes, a cardiologist clearance letter after a cardiac event. Showing up without them is the most common reason a driver leaves with a 3 month card instead of a 2 year one.
There are 8 locations in West Des Moines, IA with a total of 15 certified medical examiners on the FMCSA National Registry. Any of them can issue your medical certificate.
Most DOT physicals run $80 to $150. Walk-in and occupational health clinics sit at the low end, hospital-affiliated practices at the high end. The exam is almost never billed to health insurance, so expect to pay out of pocket. Call ahead, since prices are set per location and not by FMCSA. See what a DOT physical costs.
None of the West Des Moines locations are walk-in clinics, so call ahead and book. Nearby cities may have urgent care options.
