Is a DOT physical the same as a drug test?

No. A DOT physical and a DOT drug test are two separate services. The physical checks whether you are medically fit to drive, and its urinalysis screens for health conditions, not drugs. A DOT drug test is a separate screen some employers require. Vitality Urgent Care offers both DOT physicals and DOT drug testing at our Buffalo Grove and Lake Zurich locations, so you can complete them in one stop.
