Does anyone have any good/bad experiences with doctors in Toronto? How much did it cost? I have to do my medical now and just wanted to find out people's thoughts.
You know what mate? I did the cheapest in Vancouver and I regret it somehow! The cheapest is not the best option. My urine test came out unclear, and they made me to do it once more, they never told me what to do or not to do before the second test. The second test came out unclear as well and they uploaded the result anyway. After a month CIC asked for another urine test, by this time I have had done my studies on my own, drank a lot of water, didn't exercise, etc. and the test came out clear as crystal. Just think about how much money I spent for these tests alone, gas for car, not to mention the golden time I lost.Digital_Tofu said:Does anyone have any good/bad experiences with doctors in Toronto?

How can you see if it has been uploaded? Using your UCI on the CIC website?cecfm said:I went to Dr Lyndon Mascarenhas at St. Clair and Avenue.
$250
With the blood test lab and x-ray lab in the same building.
He just check my blood presure and that's it. I am in and out his office in 5 minutes.. lol

Thanks for the info. It is a little bit of a hassle for me to get to that doctor, and it seems expensive for a checkup, but I guess I want someone who is reputable as well. Might arrange a booking with your doc. Does OHIP cover the medical at all?cecfm said:I have done my medical on Jul 14. I emailed them the following week to ask if my result was uploaded . They replied my results were uploaded on Jul 17. My guess is once they have the lab results, they will upload it within 1-2 days.
hope my info is helpful
