DOT Physicals for Tega Cay, SC Drivers
Tega Cay drivers came to the Monroe clinic in October, so we know the trip works: fifty minutes by the Fort Mill and Waxhaw back roads, with none of the I-77 construction. One visit, one card, home by mid-afternoon.
Certifying commercial drivers since 1985. Alex books 24 hours a day in English and Spanish and texts you the address as soon as you are booked. Walk-ins welcome during clinic hours.
About 32 miles, about 50 minutes. Leave Tega Cay on Gold Hill Road to US-21, cut across on SC-160 east through Fort Mill to US-521, then NC-75 (Waxhaw Highway) east through Waxhaw into Monroe. The clinic is on US-74 (W Roosevelt Blvd) where NC-75 comes in.
Most of the drivers we see from the Lake Wylie side are owner-operators or on regional runs out of the York County distribution parks. If you drive for a company that needs the long form, tell Alex when you book and we will have it ready.

Charlotte DOT Exam Center has certified commercial drivers since 1985. While our new Charlotte facility is finalised, Dr. Alan Tebby, one of our two FMCSA-certified medical examiners, holds clinic in Monroe on Fridays and Saturdays, inside an established medical practice with truck parking on site.

Covers the exam, the urine test, your certificate and the National Registry submission. Nothing else to pay.
Arrive ten minutes early for paperwork. Dr. Tebby checks vision, hearing, blood pressure and pulse, runs the urine test (a medical screen, not a drug test), goes through your history and medications, and does the physical. Most drivers are finished in 30 to 45 minutes. If you meet the FMCSA standards, your certificate is signed and printed before you leave and submitted to the National Registry the same day. The Registry passes the result to the SCDMV electronically; there is nothing to mail in.
Bring your CDL or photo ID, a written list of your medications and doses, glasses or contacts if you drive with them, hearing aids if you use them, your current card if you are recertifying, and your CPAP compliance report or a specialist’s letter if either applies to you.
How far is it from Tega Cay?
About 32 miles, about 50 minutes by road, and the Google Maps link above gives you the live route and traffic. Truck parking is on site.
Does the SCDMV get my certificate automatically?
Yes. We submit to the FMCSA National Registry the same day you are examined, and the Registry passes the result to the South Carolina DMV electronically. There is nothing for you to mail or hand in. Keep the paper copy in the truck and check your SCDMV record after a few days.
What does it cost?
$79 cash or $81.77 by card, and that is everything: the examination, the urine test, the certificate and the National Registry filing. If you were already booked at a quoted price, you pay the price you were quoted.
