How Can I Renew My HGV Medical?

When to Renew Your HGV Medical

 Initially, drivers must undergo a D4 medical examination when applying for their HGV license. Once a driver reaches the age of 45, they are required to renew their HGV medical every five years. This renewal frequency increases to annually once the driver turns 65. It’s important to note that these renewals are mandatory to maintain the validity of your HGV license.

For a seamless renewal process, drivers can rely on MotorMedicals, which offers discounted rates, eye tests, and a comprehensive medical history review, all conducted by GMC-registered doctors.

Government and DVLA Advice on D4 Medicals

The DVLA advises that regular medical assessments help in early detection and management of potential health issues. It is essential for drivers to adhere to these guidelines, as non-compliance can lead to license suspension or revocation. The government emphasizes the importance of accurate and honest reporting during medical evaluations to maintain high safety standards on the roads.

Conditions Affecting HGV Medical Renewal

Conditions such as diabetes, heart issues, neurological disorders, or sleep apnea may require more regular monitoring. The DVLA provides specific guidelines for these scenarios, often demanding annual checks or even more frequent assessments depending on the severity and nature of the condition. It’s crucial for drivers to disclose any such health issues during their medical examinations to adhere to safety regulations and avoid penalties.

At MotorMedicals, our GMC-registered doctors are experienced in conducting thorough HGV medicals, including eye tests and full medical history reviews, to ensure all health aspects are covered.  Book your appointment online or give us a call for a quick and efficient service.
