✅ If you are diabetic and taking medication other than Metformin such as insulin, Sitagliptin, Gliclazide, Dapagliflozin (then it is strongly advisable that you are checking your blood sugar at least THREE times a day and just before DRIVING and every TWO hours whilst driving). This is because taxi medicals are assessed towards strict Group 2 DVLA Driving Standards and are a mandatory requirement that you are checking for blood sugar often as stated above.
✅ If you are diabetic and suffered from hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar), then do please discuss with Dr Anwar as depending on the severity/number of episodes this can have an impact on the fitness for the driver.
✅ If you have had a heart attack in the past (and not declared this to DVLA already), it is usually a legal requirement to have an up-to-date exercise ECG. Most of the time if this is needed the council via DVLA will get in touch with you after the medical form has been submitted. However, where the GP (Dr Anwar) has to declare fitness for the patient in this scenario for some councils, it may be that the decision has to be put down as deferred subject to adequate 9 minute Bruce Tolerance Exercise ECG test.
We have completed several hundred Taxi, PCO, Private Hire, Mini-Cab and Chauffeur Medicals for multiple councils (see full list below). Unlike other companies, you will receive a personalised service from Dr Anwar and should there be any concerns around not passing medical, you will be guided every step of the way to ensure you meet pass standards with personalised WhatsApp communication and direct number of the doctor. Dr Anwar has a very good understanding of council requirements and also assists with extra information particularly required from councils like TFL for diabetic or heart patients.

Whilst the majority of drivers >90% would usually pass the medical first time; there can be situations when one can fail the medical. The most common reasons tend to be an elevated blood pressure (beyond the BP 180/100mmHg standard) or failing visual eye standards according to DVLA Group 2 standards. Should this occur, then don’t panic as most of the time this can be easily corrected by either having a further up-to-date eye test with an opticians or investing in a blood pressure machine to check home BP readings and making contact with your own GP to consider any BP medication or change in diet/lifestyle advice. You will have Dr Anwar’s direct number who will be available to guide and answer any of your questions at any stage of the process before bringing you back for completion of the rest of the medical form.
Cherries Medical Clinic will promise to deliver optimal client and patient satisfaction. You will have access to the doctor with his direct number to troubleshoot any issues and a personalised approach to ensure we prioritise a plan for your health.
