Driver's Licence Medical in Tewantin
Tewantin Driver's Licence Medical
Driver’s Licence Medicals help confirm fitness to drive for private and commercial licences. At Tewantin Medical Centre in central Tewantin, all doctors perform these assessments, and the local transport department is within 100 metres for convenience. We provide clear, timely reports for new applications, renewals, and condition reviews required by licensing authorities.
Private Driver’s Licence Medicals are required from age 75, or earlier if a permanent or long-term condition may affect safe driving. Common issues include diabetes, eye or vision problems, heart disease, neurological conditions, psychiatric disorders, sleep disorders, and alcohol or drug dependency. Whenever possible, complete these assessments with your usual GP for continuity.
We also provide medical assessments for Uber and commercial driver's licences. The fee for these medicals is $220 including GST. Commercial Driver’s Licence Medicals aren't covered by Medicare, and we issue a tax invoice for records.
Where relevant, we coordinate care with our
chronic disease management and
health assessments services to support safe driving decisions based on clinical standards. For enquiries or bookings, call

Ensuring Safe and Legal Driving
Our driver’s licence medicals carefully assess whether you meet the health and fitness standards set by the Department of Transport and Main Roads. Your doctor will review your medical history, relevant lifestyle factors, and any conditions that may affect your ability to drive safely, ensuring compliance with either private or commercial licence requirements.
During the appointment, assessments may include vision and hearing tests, cardiovascular checks, neurological evaluations, and musculoskeletal mobility reviews. Additional tests may be performed based on your age, health status, or the type of licence you hold, ensuring every examination is tailored to your individual needs and driving responsibilities.
Once your assessment is complete, your doctor will discuss the results with you in detail and finalise any necessary paperwork for submission to the transport authority. If follow-up testing or specialist review is required, we arrange these promptly to minimise delays and help you maintain safe, legal driving status.
