Our Services

Dr. Dakota Price

Dr. Price and our dedicated team specialize in conducting thorough First Class, Second Class and Third Class medical examinations as mandated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Our exams are designed to assess a pilot's physical and mental fitness, ensuring they meet the standards set by the FAA for aviation safety.

First Class Medical Exams
Tailored for airline pilots, our First Class medical exams provide a rigorous and thorough assessment to certify you for the highest level of flight duties. Dr. Price will meticulously conduct the examination, which encompasses detailed vision and hearing tests, cardiovascular evaluations, and a comprehensive general physical examination. Additionally, a thorough review of your medical history will be performed to ensure you meet the stringent health standards required for commercial airline operations.

Second Class Medical Exams
Ideal for commercial pilots, our Second Class medical exams are comprehensive evaluations that certify you for commercial flight duties. Dr. Price will guide you through the examination process, which includes vision, hearing, and general physical assessments, alongside a review of your medical history.

Third Class Medical Exams
Our Third Class medical exams cater to student, recreational, and private pilots. These exams ensure you possess the health and wellness required for non-commercial piloting. Like our Second Class evaluations, these exams include a thorough check-up and review of your medical history.
