Re: what do the doctors check

When I did my Medicals, every thing was done on the same day. There was no TB test. They did X-ray and I assume they normally don't do TB test unles something comes up positive in the X-ray. There was no shots (vaccination). There was blood work. They normally collect blood sample on the same day and then send the sample for testing. My doctor told me that it will take couple of days before he gets the blood work results. They also did routine physical exam, urinalysis, vision, blood pressure...So, ideally the Medical exam should not cost you more than one visit to the Doctor.

Hope this was helpeful....

Hi,

I am just wondering what the doctors check for the medical. Do they do TB test which will take a few days? Blood work? Any shots?

Guys with experience please reply.
 
File transfer

I got the initial assessment done a month back and required to take an interview at LA consulate. The assessment letter also said that the current wait time is 7-10 months before my file would be transferred to LA consulate and then I will get a letter from them with the interview date. I thought it's their delaying tactics but....

But, the good news is that I got another letter today saying my file is transferred and that means I will be called for an interview any time now( within next couple of months).
Isn't that great:)

I think Canadian immigration is working smoothly unlike US immigration which really sucks ...:confused:

Anyway, I hope this information is good for people who are waiting for their interview date.

Good Luck!!

Thanks,

List of doctors

Hello,
this forum is really great.
I aplied on : Nov 22 2002
Recd. Initial assessment: Oct 18 2003
Recd. interview waiver

I have to submit medicals within next 60 days. I was going thr' the list and foung 2 names for Massechusetts. One of the doctor can not make it before Jan since she is on materbity vacation and another doctor is charging too much 400$ for adaul and 275 for my 10 year old son. It comes around 1200 $ for all of us.
Does anybody know a doctor who is less expensive? I can go to NY or any nearby states too if it is saving me money.
Experienced members please help on this.

Hey Genius,
Did u say u applied in Nov 22 2002? Just want to make sure its not a typo. That would mean u got your initial assessment within a year. That is really fast. BTW, did u send out your application on this date or did CIC start processing your application on this date

Thanks

Had another question. Did CIC ask you for any additional documents for proving english proficiency? Had you given the IELTS test?

Thanks
