DVLA D4 / Taxi / Private Hire Medicals
What is a DVLA D4 medical?
A DVLA D4 medical is a medical assessment required for certain licence applications and renewals, most commonly for Group 2 and other vocational drivers.
We provide D4 medicals for HGV, LGV, PCV, C1 and D1 drivers, as well as taxi and private hire medicals where required.
What to expect at your appointment:
• medical history review
• blood pressure check
• vision assessment
• completion of the relevant form
Appointments are 20–30 minutes so patients do not feel rushed.
Driver Assessments
Targeted medical assessments to support DVLA fitness-to-drive requirements.
This may include:
• review of relevant medical conditions
• medication review where driving may be affected
• assessment after a recent diagnosis or change in health
• guidance on DVLA notification requirements
