A new team of independent medical specialists has introduced the Medical Fitness to Drive Consultancy (MFTDC) to assist drivers and businesses across the UK with medical assessments required by the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA). The service is now live and aims to provide drivers with clear, reliable advice on medical fitness to drive, helping them retain or regain their licences.
MFTDC offers a wide range of services, including online consultations, vocational driver medicals, and training programmes for both individuals and organisations. Key services include:
- Online e-Consultations – Virtual appointments designed to guide individual drivers on DVLA medical requirements linked to specific health conditions.
- D4 Exams / Group 2 Medicals – Medical assessments for HGV and PCV drivers, including vision testing. Clinics are available in Cardiff, Bristol, Swansea, and Birmingham, with appointments offered seven days a week in the Cardiff centre.
- Training & Education – Tailored sessions for drivers, clinicians, and businesses to enhance understanding of UK medical driving standards.
The Managing Director of MFTDC said:
“Many drivers face delays or confusion when dealing with DVLA medical rules. Our role is to make the process clear and straightforward. By combining medical expertise with practical guidance, we make it easier for drivers to understand their responsibilities and for businesses to meet compliance requirements.
We are taking decisive action to support the community we serve by launching the UK’s most affordable D4 medical exam. From September 1st to December 31st, 2025, MFTDC will be offering its comprehensive Group 2 D4 medicals, including the mandatory vision assessment, for just £39 across all its centres.
Our mission is to put clarity back into the system, provide trusted medical expertise, and help drivers get back on the road legally and safely.”
MFTDC highlights that all final licensing decisions rest with the DVLA.
