KrisP Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I was wondering what is generally checked during the Medical assessment and what should an applicant be careful about? Also for Visa applicants not located in Australia, are we told to get the Medical tests done from a specific Lab/Hospital that are authorised? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Pom Queen Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Hi and welcome to the forum. Wow its around 10/11 years since we had our medicals so I'm sure things will have changed, we had X-rays, blood tests, pee test. They did weight, height, blood pressure, I know mine was a little more in depth but I think that's all hubby did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peach Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Full list of things you are graded on for your medical is here: http://www.immi.gov.au/gateways/panel_doctors/conducting_medicals/instructions/ Yes, only authorised panel doctors can perform the examination: http://www.immi.gov.au/contacts/panel-doctors/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tina0101 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 We had ours today in Maidenhead. Lovely staff there. We got in and had the chest xrays followed by height/weight and sight test (she pointed a 4 letters on random rows of the chart and I had to read them). Then a urine sample followed by a medical - questions about anything I may have (diabetes, heart condition etc) then she checked blood pressure, reflexes, gave me a good feel all over and checked my ears, mouth and eyes. Then bloods and we were done! The three of us were there for about 2.5 hours in total, but it wasn't too painful!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
