Why Patients Choose The Vesey for Taxi and Private Hire Medical in Birmingham
A taxi / private-hire driver medical is the health assessment most councils require for a Hackney Carriage or private-hire (PHV) licence. It is carried out to the DVLA Group 2 standard that most local authorities specify.
We complete your council's medical form on the day so your licence application or renewal isn't delayed.
What the Medical Involves
The examination covers eyesight, heart and blood pressure, diabetes, neurological and general health, and any conditions relevant to safe driving. Bring your glasses if you wear them and a list of medications.
The clinician completes and signs the medical form your council provides.
