Medicals & Training in Leeds

NEW AND WANNABE DRIVERS (INTERACTIVE)
1

So been driving vans for years as as believed that my eyesight blocked me from gaining my provisional LGV/PCV but a change in the visual acuity requirements now mean I can finally get my provisional.

So I know my eyes are fine, I decided to ring the quacks to find out how much a medical would cost me. After the wife had picked me up off the floor I asked the doctors to repeat the figure they had just quoted me £177.60. Suffice to say I won’t be in a rush to use them.

So here I am asking for recommendations of any companies that do medicals or offer medicals as part of a training package.in the West Yorkshire area (though could travel a little bit)?

Any help and advice welcome.

Well medicals done, I tried the ones listed on TN but they a) weren’t local or b) were unable to fit me in within a reasonable timescale.

In the end I found a private practice in Leeds that would do my medical with out registering. Not the cheapest at £90 but more flexible timewise.

they were

Leeds Private Doctors
The Surgery 2 Upland Road LEEDS LS8 2SQ Telephone us: 0113 240 1234

The day of my medical had taken place I received and email from an NHS practice that also offers medicals at £50(Sods law it comes after my medical)

Dr Iwantschak & Partners
Leeds City Medical Practice

Tel: 0113 2705131

In my opinion my £90 medical was not the cheapest on out there but was half the price of my GP.

I think they are worth adding to the cheap medicals thread.

Way too high a price for a CHEAP medical

£90 is a decent price to pay for a medical if the customer is happy to pay it. Like Glen said local and flexible.

Good luck with the theory tests
