After reviewing a patient-completed questionnaire, our physician takes a detailed medical history himself. Vital signs are checked followed by a comprehensive head-to-toe physical examination completed by the physician. A urinalysis is performed by dipstick method. A visual acuity test and neurological exam are included in the physician’s exam. This format is modified for addition or exclusion only at the request of the employer.
