  Hi,
I have fixed an appointment ot get my medicals done in san diego area.Is there anything I should know before going there?

Guys pls given me some tips regarding the medical......

1)What are all the tests that will be taken?
2)How much with the xray and lab test cost?
3)How long will it take for the doctor to send the results to the canadian officals?
4)Should I make sure anything before leaving the Doctor´s office?
I also read that tracking no can be asked from the doctor? Have anybody requested this from the doctor?
5)what are the questions I should ask the doctor before leaving?
6)can I use my medical insurance to cover these tests?Have anybody done that?
7)I heard that the courier is the best way for the doctor´s office to send the results to the canadian officals...so should I request them specifically for this or it´s up to the Doctor´s office?


Thanks.

1- Blood, urine tests, chest x-ray
2- Depends on your doctor. Mine was 380 usd (including fedex)
3- 1-2 weeks
4- They know the drill. Don´t worry. After 2 weeks, call them for the tracking number.
5- They will ask the questions.
6- No (unless your insurance allows that, most probably it does not)
7- Good idea.

Thanks for ur response. (in reply to: Urgent info required on Medicals)
Thanks for ur response.I got my IA letter on April 11th and I was able to fix an appointment with a doctor in my area(sandiego) for only on 27th april.Do u think it´s late?Do I have to find a doctor in LA and fix an appointment earlier than 27th april.
Does it take 2 weeks normally for everyone to get an appointment with the doctor.

Because after the test the doctor has to send the result to ottowa and they sould send the results to LA and all this should take place within July11th.

So do u think fixing an appointment 2 weeks from the date of receiving the letter is advisable?

Pls help.

Thanks & Good Luck.

you should be OK. You worry too much.

As far as I know, 90-day deadline is for your medical results to arrive to Ottawa. It is not for LA office to get the results back from Ottawa.

So, you are good to go.

hey rookie,
Sorry yaar.. I dint know that 90 days is only for the medical reports to reach the ottowa and not for ottowa to enter into their system from which the LA Canadian Consulate downloads it.

Thaks for clearing my doubt.
