Our team at Health Care Centers are dedicated to working for the best interests of employers, employees, and patients seeking immigration. Immigration physicals are required assessments for those who are applying for specific immigration benefits, such as visas or green cards. These examinations ensure that applicants are free from health conditions that could post a risk to general public health. Our exams and tests focus on identifying communicable illnesses, verifying vaccinations, and assessing for other disorders. Part of the path to immigration may involve immigration physicals, where we make sure you are the healthiest version of yourself possible! Contact us now so we can help!
Immigration Physicals
During the immigration physical, we review the applicant’s medical history, such as their past conditions, medications, chronic illness, and vaccinations. We examine the ears, eyes, nose, lungs, heart, throat, skin, and extremities. We evaluate the patient’s weight, height, and blood pressure as well. Some required testing may include tuberculosis, syphilis, and gonorrhea. Applicants may have to prove that they received certain vaccinations for preventable diseases, which may involve hepatitis B, MMR, varicella, tetanus/Tdap, and influenza. We use immigration physicals to identify any conditions that could be a risk for the public or make them inadmissible. If you have questions or would like to book an appointment, contact us now!
The intention of immigration physicals is to safeguard public health by addressing any health conditions that could be a risk to the United States population. This ensures that immigrants are able to adapt to life in the U.S. without significant barriers from health-related conditions. After the examination and testing, we can complete and fill out medical documentation and vaccination records so the patient can use this for their application. All in all, an immigration medical exam is a public health measure to protect the population in the U.S. from conditions that could be a serious harm and result in devastating outcomes.

Medical History Review
We begin our immigration physicals by reviewing the patient’s medical history to get a clear picture of their health background. This includes discussing past illnesses, surgeries, medications, and current health conditions. Having accurate information allows us to address any concerns before moving forward with the physical examination.
Physical Examination
The physical examination is a standard part of the process. During this visit, we assess overall health by checking vital signs, listening to the heart and lungs, and performing a general evaluation. This helps identify any health issues that may need attention.
Vaccination Review And Updates
Many immigration physicals require certain vaccinations to be up to date. We review the patient’s records and provide any needed vaccines at the appointment. This step helps meet the necessary health requirements and supports long-term wellness.
Blood Tests And Screenings
Blood tests and other screenings are often required during immigration health checkups. We collect samples in our office and send them to certified labs for processing. This includes screenings for infectious diseases and other health markers that must be documented for official purposes.
Tuberculosis Testing
Testing for tuberculosis is a common part of these exams. Depending on the patient’s history and needs, this may involve a skin test or a blood test. If further evaluation is required, we guide patients through the next steps to address any findings.
Vision And Hearing Assessments
We also perform basic vision and hearing checks during these exams. These assessments help provide a full view of the patient’s overall health and may highlight areas where follow-up care is needed.
Completion Of Required Forms
Once the examination and tests are complete, we fill out the necessary forms to document the results. These forms are prepared carefully and provided to the patient to submit as part of their application process. Accuracy in this step is important for meeting official requirements.
Follow-Up Care
If a health issue is discovered during the process, we provide follow-up care or referrals to address the concern. Our goal is to help patients not only meet the needed requirements but also improve their overall health.
Support Throughout The Process
We aim to make each step as clear and stress-free as possible. From the initial visit to the final paperwork, our team works with patients to provide clear guidance and answer questions about what to expect during each stage.
