DOT Physicals in Kansas

547 locations and 1,003 certified medical examiners across 186 cities, taken straight from the FMCSA National Registry.

Getting a DOT physical in Kansas

Every location listed here has at least one examiner on the FMCSA National Registry. That registration is the only thing that makes an exam valid. A clinic can be excellent and still be unable to issue your card if nobody on staff is certified, which is why this directory is built from the registry itself rather than from business listings.

The busiest markets in Kansas are Wichita, Overland Park, Topeka, Olathe and Leawood. Rural counties often have a single certified examiner, sometimes a nurse practitioner at a county health clinic, so book ahead if you are outside a metro area.

Bring photo ID, your CDL or permit, and a complete medication list. If you use a CPAP, bring the compliance download. If you are diabetic, bring a recent A1C. If you have had a cardiac event, bring the clearance letter. Missing paperwork is the number one reason a driver walks out with a short-term card or no card at all.

Frequently asked questions

How many DOT physical locations are there in Kansas?

Kansas has 547 locations across 186 cities with at least one examiner on the FMCSA National Registry, 1003 certified examiners in total.

Can any doctor do a DOT physical in Kansas?

No. Since May 2014, only a medical examiner listed on the FMCSA National Registry can perform a DOT physical and issue a medical examiner's certificate. That includes MDs, DOs, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and chiropractors, as long as they hold the certification. Your regular family doctor cannot do it unless they are on the registry.

Where can I get a same-day DOT physical in Kansas?

89 of the 547 locations in Kansas are walk-in or urgent care clinics. Those are the ones most likely to take you the same day, often with evening and weekend hours.

How long is a DOT medical card good for in Kansas?

Up to 24 months, and the rule is federal, so it is the same in every state. Examiners issue shorter cards, commonly 3 or 12 months, when they want to monitor blood pressure, diabetes or a heart condition. See the renewal rules.
