The staff here are so friendly and they dont treat you like a product on an assembly line like other doctors do, they take their time and make sure you have said what you wanted to say and you are comfortable with their treatments or plans. What I really love about this place is it is easy for a doctor to see something is wrong but then get tunnel vision and start looking how to fix that issue but forgets that there is a human sitting there, they dont do that here. I have been misdiagnosed by so many other doctors and Heather and Dr. Hoerning both have taken what was wrong and completely find the underlying issue which would be so far from what you would think it would be and by fixing that, you fixed what you came in for. 5/5 stars

Your DOT card is about to expire
Commercial work does not pause because paperwork ran out. A DOT physical in Lindenhurst keeps your certificate current at a clinic you can actually reach.
You drive local and regional routes
Many drivers work Sunrise Highway, the Southern State, and jobs across Suffolk County and Nassau County. A nearby exam beats a trip into the city.
You also need regular medical care

We are open Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–7:00 PM; Saturday, 9:00 AM–2:00 PM. Evening and Saturday hours help if you are on the road all day.
