Immigration Medical Exam (Form I-693) — Elevated Primary Care & Aesthetics, Dr. Joshua Le, Civil Surgeon.
As a USCIS-designated civil surgeon, Dr. Le completes your I-693 immigration medical exam.
The exam has three parts:
1. Health screening
We screen for the conditions USCIS requires, including tuberculosis, syphilis, gonorrhea, and Hansen’s disease (leprosy). The exam also reviews psychiatric history, drug use, and major medical conditions. Lab tests are ordered as part of this screening.
2. Vaccinations
USCIS requires proof of certain vaccines. Commonly required for adults: Tdap, MMR, Varicella, Hepatitis B, and Polio . Influenza (flu) is required only during flu season. Children and some adults need additional vaccines based on age and the CDC immigration schedule — we determine exactly what you need at your visit.
COVID-19 vaccination is no longer required.
If you already have vaccine records, bring them — we credit what you’ve documented and only address what’s missing.
3. The form
Dr. Le completes, signs, and seals your I-693, attesting to your health status. You submit the sealed envelope with your application — do not open it.
Fee: $500 (self-pay)
Covers your exam, lab tests, and completed civil surgeon paperwork.
Vaccines are not included.
They may be covered by your insurance — we’ll advise where and how to get them affordably.
Timeline: generally 7–10 business days, and usually more than one visit to complete labs, vaccines, and paperwork.

HOW IT WORKS
Medical History & Physical Examination
At the first visit, the civil surgeon reviews your medical history, current health status, and performs a full physical exam to identify any conditions that could be of concern under immigration health criteria.
Laboratory & Communicable Disease Screening
The exam includes screening for certain contagious diseases (such as tuberculosis and other infections) and may require blood or urine tests depending on age and background.
Vaccination Record Review & Immunization Updates
The physician reviews your vaccination history. If any required vaccines are missing or outdated, you may need to receive them (or provide proof of immunity) so that your vaccination record complies with U.S. immigration requirements.
Completion of the Report (Form I-693)
If all requirements are met — health clearance, disease screening, and vaccinations — the civil surgeon completes, signs, and seals the official Form I-693 in a sealed envelope for submission with your immigration application.
