I just found two 5-star reviews within 50 miles of the house.
AFC didn't have a review but you probably have to hit a clinic near your service center.
Nevertheless, it's a great resource.
I just had a physical last thursday,took 2 hrs.It was more thouroughal then ever before but glad she didn't send me to another greedy doctor.She did give me a lists of doctors to see for my cough but unlike some She didn't send me to pay more money I didn't have and not issue me med card.I'm good for two yrs.My son had to get a physical right after the registry went into effect.
I told him to get it done early but nobody listens to me.
A NURSE told him she didn't like the sound of his cough when she checked him for hernia so he had to go see a lung specialist to get cleared.
Then he had to go back and get cleared by the nurse because she was the initial contact.
Of course she was off for the two days after he got cleared by the lung specialist...
He lost a week's work plus he spent $400-$500 out of pocket to get the stupid physical.
What a pant-load!!
OOIDA has a site set up for reviewing those who perform DOT physicals.
It's getting rave reviews and may tip you off to an A-hole facility where they push 'value added' services.

I physically took my med card in to Idaho. I don't like taking chances.
When I get an inspection, I still hand them the card.
I've never been told where I had to go to get a physical. Just which place the company would pay for.
I paid for my own physical once. It was $35Well let's see here on "Trucking" Pay do ya REALLY wanna shell out 150/200 Bucks "outta" pocket ....
Why don't they train their damned drivers? Instead of taking the time to make sure these guys can actually drive, Swift buys cameras and everything else to dummy proof the trucks. But I guess you can't dummy proof anything when all you hire is dummies.

All at a facility where @Keendriver , aka the most awesomest and handsomest member, does his j-o-b.

Biggest group of ADD'ers I've ever seen......
That's what I said.......
Yup. I say stupid stuff meanwhile that company has how many accidents? How many fatalities? How much in damage? I don't care you work for that POS company. You fly that flag all you want. Go ahead, more power to you. But the thing is kid, it's been well documented over the years of how bad their training program is, how unsafe it's made the roads, and how much it's cost Jerry Moyes to pay for that. Swift sucks. Get over it.I know a guy whose name happens to be Joseph, not you but a different guy. The guy named Joseph that I know says a lot of stupid stuff. I never thought much about it before, just knew that he said things that were dumb. But here you come and say that "all you hire is dummies". Following that logic, I guess I am going to have to assume that everyone named Joseph can only say stupid stuff.

Dummy! Not dummie! Proving my point!!!! Lol. Just kidding. But, it's not only Swift. It's England. And Prime. And several companies that barely train these guys. Swift is just the biggest and the most noticeable. Not every driver at Swift is a bad driver. I get that. But, in their case, it's hard not to throw the baby out with the bath water. I've met several damned good drivers with Swift. But I've met even more bad ones. Is that on you? Of course it's not. But it is on the people who run that company. Yes, they're a billion dollar business and much to the chagrin of those who hate Swift, they aren't going anywhere. But the truth is, what happens with their woefully inadequate training program will start chipping away at the stone.You may be right, but you are wrong about one thing, I ain't no kid. I am sure that I am older than you, and more than likely just as safe if not safer than you. Just because I work for Swift doesn't mean that I am a dummie or that I am inexperienced. Get over yourself!
