If you are wondering whether your personal doctor can also serve as your MRO, the short answer is “possibly, but probably not.” DOT regulations require MROs to obtain certification. Most personal doctors do not have this certification.
A doctor must complete specialized training and pass an exam to become a certified MRO. Without this certification, a doctor cannot act as a Medical Review Officer. Before assuming your doctor qualifies, verify their certification status to ensure compliance with DOT regulations.
