Many visa and immigration applications require a medical assessment from a GMC-registered doctor. At AristoGP, Dr Georgios Schoinas provides immigration medical assessments for patients applying to emigrate or relocate abroad, complete work permit applications, or provide health documentation as part of a visa process. Same-day appointments are available and a written medical report or completed form is issued promptly.
What Visa Medicals Typically Involve
- Physical examination: Blood pressure, heart rate, BMI, respiratory and cardiovascular examination
- Medical history review: Current and past medical conditions, medications, surgical history and psychiatric history where required
- Completion of visa medical forms: Dr Schoinas completes the relevant country-specific medical form (such as Australia Form 160 eMedical, Canada IMM 5419, New Zealand INZ 1007) following the examination
- Blood tests if required: Some visa applications require specific blood tests such as HIV, hepatitis B or syphilis testing. These can be arranged at the same visit and results processed by TDL within 24 to 48 hours

Please note: UK visa applications requiring TB screening must be completed at a Home Office approved TB screening centre. AristoGP can advise on the process and complete any accompanying GP documentation, but the TB chest X-ray itself must be done at an approved centre.
US immigrant visa medical examinations (immigrant visa, green card) must be performed by a US Embassy Panel Physician. AristoGP does not currently hold Panel Physician status for US Embassy medicals.
