First off, you don't need to get a physical to get a learner's permit!. I'm assuming that you're talking about a normal driver's license!.

It's really dumb, but lots of insurance companies won't cover physicals!. They really lose in the end because those people who have problems end up costing them a bundle when they get sick, but that's what some of them do!.

Physicals should be performed by internists (Doctors of Internal Medicine)!. The word "physical" is used most commonly!. Dermatologists check for skin conditions and that's a totally differently story - they are specialists, although they still have to have normal medical degrees before they can specialize!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The best blood workup I have ever had in a physical was from a DO, A doctor of osteopathy!. He fond things in my blood that I didn't even know that you could tell from the blood!. Definitely more than any MD would bother looking for!.
Like how my vitamin levels were and where I was deficient in say Magnesium!.
I have had a lot of physicals in my time but nothing come close to being so therow!. So I know what kind of Doc that I will go to for a physical!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

just go to your family doctorWww@Answer-Health@Com

i would say MD medical doctor they should be able to do a physical for youWww@Answer-Health@Com
