All Immigration Medical Examinations must be conducted by a physician certified to perform the exam by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
Your own doctor cannot perform the medical exam. Our physicians are IRCC certified panel physicians approved to conduct Immigration Medical Exams for IRCC. If you have questions read our FAQs at the bottom of this page.
The purpose of the immigration medical examination is to assess your general health and to identify any major medical conditions. The exam is intended for those applying for the following who have been advised by the IRCC to have this exam performed:
- Permanent Residency
- Student Visas
- Worker Visas
- Visitor Visas
All appointments are 30 minutes in length. You must bring a list of current medications and information on any present or past medical conditions that required treatment by a specialist physician.
