Taxi and private hire medicals for Manchester drivers

Manchester City Council asks taxi and private hire drivers for a medical to the DVLA Group 2 standard. One of our GMC registered GPs carries it out and fills in the council's form at the same appointment.

Applying to Manchester City Council

We keep Manchester City Council's medical form, so you don't need to bring one.

Choose Manchester City Council when you book and we'll have the form ready. If the council has sent you a letter, bring that too.

The medical takes about 15 minutes and costs £55 with the eye test. You can pay online when you book or at the clinic.

Getting here

The clinic is in Openshaw on Ashton Old Road, about two miles east of the city centre.
