Where the medical fits in your Uber application
To drive for Uber in Queensland, you need a driver authorisation from the Department of Transport and Main Roads, as well as meeting Uber’s own requirements. Getting driver authorisation involves holding an eligible open licence, passing criminal history checks and providing a medical certificate showing you meet the commercial fitness-to-drive standard.
The medical for Uber drivers is often the quickest part of the process. At Carindale Doctors, your GP checks your vision, hearing, blood pressure, heart health and any medical conditions, then completes the certificate during your appointment so you can submit it straight away.
In short: Carindale Doctors completes medicals for Uber drivers inside Westfield Carindale in a single visit, assessing you to the commercial standard required for Queensland driver authorisation. Same-day appointments are often available. Driver medicals are a private service, and reception will confirm the fee.
