Taxi and private hire medicals for Salford drivers

Salford 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 Salford City Council

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

Choose Salford 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

Across the city from Salford, either through the centre or round on the M60 and in from the east.
