A D4 medical is a health assessment required by the DVLA for anyone applying to drive:

  • HGV / LGV vehicles (Category C, C1, C+E, C1+E)
  • PCV vehicles
  • Ambulances
  • Any commercial vehicle requiring a professional licence

This medical checks your:

  • Blood pressure
  • Vision & eyesight (including visual field test)
  • Medical history
  • Mental health & fitness to drive
  • General health assessment

Please bring:

  • Your completed D4 form (or we can print one for you)
  • Your current driving licence (photocard)
  • Any prescription glasses or contact lenses
  • A list of any medications you take
  • Your GP medical summary (recommended for some conditions)

Your appointment typically takes 10–20 minutes and includes:

  • Vision test
  • Blood pressure check
  • Medical history review
  • General health assessment
  • Doctor completes all relevant D4 sections

We submit everything to DVLA with your D2 application.  You leave with your completed D4 form, ready to send to the DVLA by us.

Once completed, the doctor signs your D4 medical form, which you submit together with your D2 licence application. We also provide the support to complete your D2 provisional licence application, theory test bookings, Driver CPC and the practical driver traiing and DVSA official DVSA driving tests.

You will need a D4 medical if you are:

  • Applying for your first HGV licence
  • Upgrading licence categories (e.g., C to C+E)
  • Renewing your licence after age 45
  • Returning to driving after a medical condition
  • Applying for C1 to drive ambulances or 7.5T vehicles
