Medical Exam - What to expect & take care of

[_Harry_]

I have my medical scheduled this week. I was just wondering:

1. What all sort of medical tests are conducted during the exam.
2. Also what all documents do I need to carry when I go.
3. Is there any kind of diet restriction that I need to do to make sure nothing fishy happens?

I tried to get this info from the person on phone of hospital but she seems very busy to discuss these details.

Thanks in advance.

The tests are normally the below:-

1> Full Body check up
2> Chest X-ray [For T.B.]
3> Blood and Urine Test
4> HIV Test
5> Syphilis Test
6> Eye Check up

The panel physician might suggest to undergo further tests if he/she feels it is necessary.

As for the documents to bring along with you for the Medical Checkup, please follow the below link.

Hi

I have a question about what you have to disclose. Do you have to tell them any tests you are having (X-ray etc) even if you have no diagnosis?

Also do they check your medical records from your time in Canada?
