​Immigration Physical Exams

When you apply for a green card (adjustment of status) in the United States, you usually need to have a medical examination. The exam must be done by a doctor who is authorized by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). USCIS designates certain doctors (also known as civil surgeons) to perform the medical exam required for most Green Card applicants. Dr Leite-Evans is a certified civil surgeon. 

What to Bring to the Exam

You Must Bring the following to your medical exam:
  • Form I-693, Report of Medical Examination and Vaccination Record
