Why do I need an immigration physical?

An immigration physical is key to ensure that patients are able to stay in the country during their visit. Regardless if you’re a permanent resident or visa worker you’ll need one in compliance with standard USICS requirements for US residency. An immigration physical is just like a primary care exam where you are evaluated on your overall health.

The physical will ensure that patients have the appropriate vaccinations and if they are in ideal health to successfully immigrate to the US. A provider at our urgent care center will coordinate your physical in a private exam room and help you navigate your next steps after the physical is completed.
