My Doc charges me $100, and fortunately, I'm in good health, so I qualify for the 2-year card.

How much would you pay on the street to have a pro shove a rubber glove up your kiester?

Some of the walk in clinics will do DOT physicals. You should be able to check the yellow pages in your area for a listing. Some truck stops also have people who do DOT physicals. I think the most I have paid is about $60 which includes the drug test.

Complete physicals...should be done every year. I guess some are more complete than others. I admit...I include blood work, UA test, and other joys ...(snap)...with my visit. I figure...as tough as this job is...why should I scrimp on my health.

But...you can get the basic ....open say ahhhh...follow my pen....your blood pressure is getting rather high...(signing med card)...okay you're done.


BTW...I was responding to your reply that $38 dollars was still not cheap enough....and I realize now you meant proximity...(close enough) ops: ...sorry

"1st time I went the doc was a real ass, said I needed to shed some poundage. I said I was working on it, he said well work alot harder. Not very professional." He was trying to communicate to you in a way you'd understand. Apparently diabetes, stroke, shortened life, ED, and all the other things that go with being overweight don't mean a thing to you, too bad for you. Sounds like he was being very professional. BOL
