Driver Medicals at JLD Banbury
Our driver medicals are available once every 3 weeks on Saturday mornings. We provide these for HGV, private hire and taxi medicals.
Please note that the forms for the medical are only provided to HGV applications or renewals, not private hire or taxi medicals.
All medicals take place at:
Cherwell Business Village, Southam Road, Banbury, OX16 2SP
If you require help with filling out the medical forms as an individual who is gaining the HGV provisional please use the link below for guidance.

If you’re completing your package with JLD, we’ll provide all the necessary forms on the day of your medical and assist you with completing them. If you’re not booking through us, the forms are available to download from the official government website, and your local post office may also have printed copies.

JLD provides driver medicals with Dr. Chambers at our Banbury site on the first Saturday of every month. Alternatively, you can arrange your medical through your own GP, if this service is available at your surgery.

If the doctor determines that you don’t meet the medical standards required to drive a Large Goods Vehicle (LGV/HGV) or Passenger Carrying Vehicle (PCV), they will report this to the DVLA. The DVLA will then refuse or revoke your entitlement for those vehicle categories.
You won’t be able to legally drive or train for your HGV/PCV licence until the issue is resolved and the DVLA approves your medical fitness.
-
If your health changes after you’ve passed your HGV or PCV medical, you have a legal duty to inform the DVLA if the condition could affect your ability to drive safely.
This applies whether you hold a provisional or full vocational licence (Category C1, C, C1+E, C+E, D, or D+E).
