What You Are Booking
A complete immigration physical for Form I-693.
If you are applying for adjustment of status, USCIS generally requires a medical exam completed by a designated civil surgeon. We built this visit to be direct, organized, and fast.
You do not need a rushed urgent care visit or a vague price. The $300 Fashioned Health package includes the physician exam, required lab testing through the civil surgeon workflow, vaccination record review, and Form I-693 completion. If USCIS-required vaccines are missing, those vaccines are separate.
Included in the $300 package
- USCIS civil surgeon exam with Dr. Thomas Caraballo, DO.
- Form I-693 completion and sealed packet preparation when requirements are complete.
- Required lab testing for the immigration medical exam, including TB blood testing when required by age.
- Vaccination record review to identify what USCIS requires for your age and history.
- Clear next steps if a vaccine, chest X-ray, treatment record, or public health referral is required.
How It Works
Four steps. No mystery. No all-day waiting room.
Most patients can move from appointment to completed paperwork quickly when vaccine documentation is ready and lab results are normal.

What to Bring

The fastest I-693 visits happen when identity, vaccine history, and prior medical records are organized before the appointment.
- Government-issued photo ID such as a passport, driver’s license, or state ID.
- Current Form I-693 if you have printed it. Do not sign until the civil surgeon tells you to sign.
- Vaccination records with dates including childhood records, pharmacy records, school records, military records, or medical chart copies.
- English translations for vaccine records or medical records that are not already in English.
- Prior TB records including positive TB test history, chest X-ray reports, or treatment documentation if applicable.
- Prior syphilis or gonorrhea treatment records if you have a history of either condition.
- Immigration notice or attorney instructions if you were told to complete the exam by a specific date.
Required Testing
USCIS rules are specific. We make the requirements understandable.
The immigration medical exam is not a general wellness physical. It follows USCIS and CDC civil surgeon technical instructions.
TB screening
Applicants age 2 and older generally need a TB blood test called an IGRA. If the result is positive or certain symptoms/risk factors are present, a chest X-ray or public health follow-up may be required.
Syphilis testing
Applicants age 18 through 44 generally need syphilis blood testing ordered through the civil surgeon at the time of the immigration medical exam.
Gonorrhea testing
Applicants age 18 through 24 generally need gonorrhea testing. Testing done before the civil surgeon exam may not satisfy the USCIS requirement.
Vaccination review
The civil surgeon reviews age-appropriate vaccine requirements and written vaccine records. Vaccines are billed separately if needed.

Immigration Medical Exam FAQ
Common questions before your I-693 appointment.
How much does the immigration medical exam cost?
The Fashioned Health I-693 exam package is $300. It includes the civil surgeon exam, required lab testing, and paperwork completion. Vaccines and additional follow-up testing are extra if needed.
Can I get a same-day immigration physical?
Same-day and next-day appointments are available when the schedule allows. Call 630-448-2724 if you are working against an immigration deadline.
How fast can I get my completed I-693?
Most straightforward cases are completed within 48 hours after required lab results are available and vaccine documentation is complete. Abnormal results, missing vaccine records, required vaccines, or TB follow-up can take longer.
Are vaccines included in the $300 price?
No. Vaccines are separate. If you already have valid written vaccine records, bring them. If vaccines are missing or age-required, we will explain what is needed and what the next step is.
Can I use labs I already completed somewhere else?
Some USCIS-required tests must be ordered by the civil surgeon at the time of the immigration medical exam. Bring any records you have, but do not assume outside testing will replace the required civil surgeon workflow.
Should I sign Form I-693 before the visit?
No. Bring the current form if you printed it, but wait to sign until the civil surgeon instructs you to sign during the appointment.
Do I submit the sealed envelope to USCIS?
For mail filing, USCIS generally requires the I-693 in the sealed envelope from the civil surgeon. If filing Form I-485 online, USCIS currently instructs applicants to upload the completed I-693 and keep the original I-693 and envelope until a final decision.
