The provision of medical services to our local professional drivers is sometimes poor, expensive and inefficient.
I am a local GP performing HGV and LGV medical examinations for vans, trucks, horseboxes, etc. and PCV medicals for buses, minibuses and coaches as well as Private hire and Hackney carriage (Taxi) medicals for local authorities (PLEASE NOTE THAT SOME LOCAL AUTHORITIES REQUIRE A TAXI MEDICAL FROM YOUR OWN GP AND IT IS THE DRIVER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK)
Are you a driver or do your drivers need licence medicals?
Where do they go currently? Is it expensive?
I offer licence medicals for only £60 per person on weekdays.
I am available 7 days a week, with hours to suit even the busiest lifestyles.
I can usually arrange an appointment within 24 hours by telephoning
07710 529301

PENNYGATE MEDICAL CENTRE,
109 LADIES LANE, HINDLEY, WIGAN
WN2 2QG
