A member asked:
Just got hired as a firefighter/emt. being sent for a special physical. that won't include a pelvic exam or anything like that right?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should not: Usually what is required is listed on the physical exam form. The question that needs to be answered is whether you have any hernia, back, heart, lungs, or musculosketal or joint problems which might prevent you from safely performing your job. Go with a friend/family to your physical if you are concerned about possible inappropiate exam.
