Why Bluffs DOT? 

Before becoming a chiropractor, Dr. Steven Barnes spent time working in construction. Today, when he's not in the office, you'll often find him hunting, fishing, running his bobcat, or working on projects outdoors. That background has given him a genuine appreciation for the hard-working people who keep our communities moving—truck drivers, contractors, farmers, and skilled tradesmen. At Bluffs DOT, we understand that taking time away from work isn't always easy. That's why we offer flexible appointment scheduling, same-day DOT physicals whenever possible, and zero-wait drug and alcohol testing. Our goal is to get you in, get you taken care of, and get you back to work as quickly as possible. When you visit Bluffs DOT, you're more than just another appointment. You're one of the people who helps keep our communities running, and we're proud to provide the dependable, straightforward service you deserve.
