Default DOT medical card

I recently had a DOT physical and passed got my card thought I was good to go then the main Doctor there rescinded my card because all of a sudden they decided they wanted more info on my medical history and medications. This info was provided to them with a letter from my Doctor stating that I can safely drive a commercial motor vehicle. The DOT doctor is still not giving me the ok was wondering if I could just go to another DOT doctor and have a new physical done.

Ever think that the doctor may not want you behind the wheel for good reason? How about addressing the problems or the meds that he has a problem with and then get your card.

I would have to agree with Fozzy. Without knowing more of what conditions and medications are, It's kind of hard to be supportive. There may be relevant legal requirements behind their refusal to grant.
