One Stop Immigration Medical
Family immigration medicals for Amberlea.
Bringing little ones to a medical takes some planning. Amberlea families can travel east to our Ajax clinic, where the physician exam, bloodwork and chest X-ray all happen in one building.
Helping Amberlea families in Pickering
A calmer medical day for parents and kids.
With toddlers, school bags and nap times to manage, Amberlea parents rarely want an appointment that sprawls across town. At our Ajax clinic, the panel physician exam, on-site bloodwork and a chest X-ray in the same building mean fewer car seat buckles and fewer stops.
Perhaps your youngest was born after you settled in Amberlea, or your children are joining you from abroad. The medical each person needs comes from your application instructions. Our team will help match bookings to those instructions, suggest what to pack and explain what children can expect.
Sorting out each family member's medical
- Canadian immigration medicals
- For Amberlea parents and children applying for permanent residence, or attending as workers, students, visitors or refugee claimants. Read through each family member's IRCC instructions with us so every booking is correct.
- New Zealand medicals
- Is your Amberlea family considering a move to New Zealand? The Ajax clinic can complete full or partial medicals for parents and children. Share each person's instructions so we can tell which services apply.
- Embassy medicals
- Ask about an embassy medical if your family is relocating to Saudi Arabia, Greece, Thailand or Taiwan. Send the forms and testing requirements for each person before booking.
Every child has their own requirements.
A sibling's medical, or one a neighbour's child had, may not match what your youngest needs. Check whether each person's application asks for an upfront exam or one after a request. If IRCC letters have arrived for your family, share them and any deadlines with our team.
Review the official guidance for permanent residence applicants or visitors, students and workers.
What children will see in Ajax
A step-by-step look at the visit.
Exams and tests take place in one building, so children are not moved between several sites. Ask how long a family visit usually runs before planning around naps or school pickup, as extra reports or tests may sometimes be needed.
Hand in the family's paperwork
At Suite 403, give the desk each person's ID and instructions. Note any name spelled differently or a child's passport that was recently replaced so every file is accurate.
Chat with the physician
Parents help younger children describe past illnesses, medicines and regular care. It is a good moment to share worries, mention what calms your child or request an accommodation.
Complete the needed tests
The team explains which tests each family member requires. Blood is drawn on site and the chest X-ray is in the same building, so children do not need a second outing.
Gather everyone's sheets
Collect the eMedical information sheet for each person and keep them together. Ask whether anything is pending, then follow your application's directions for proof of each exam.
Getting the family ready
A labelled folder for every child.
Children's passports look alike, and request letters can easily be swapped. Label a folder with each person's name and put only their documents inside. Pack snacks and a quiet toy too, so the waiting time feels familiar.
Vaccination booklets and paediatric reports from your Amberlea doctor do not travel to our clinic on their own, so bring copies. Call before the visit if anyone needs language support, a stroller-friendly route or a second adult with them. Choose easy clothing for the kids and follow any instructions the clinic gives.
Read the full exam preparation guideFamily checklist for the visit
- Each person's passport or other accepted identification.
- Any request letters or forms for the family, together with the application instructions.
- Medication lists showing names and doses for anyone taking medicine.
- Children's health reports, specialist letters or earlier test results.
- Glasses or contacts belonging to any parent or child who wears them.
- Current coverage documents if your family is asking about refugee claimant coverage.
Budgeting for an Amberlea family
Add up the cost for each person.
The age bands below help you estimate costs for parents and children separately. Babies, school-age kids and adults may need different tests, so ask the team for a family total when booking. Discuss embassy medicals and extra investigations with the clinic directly.
Ages 11–14
$200
Physician examination and chest X-ray. Bloodwork is not routinely required for this age group.
Ages 15+
$250
Physician examination, blood testing and chest X-ray are part of standard testing for this age group.
Payment options
Cash and debit are welcome. A $10 transaction fee is added when paying by credit card. Ask ahead about the cost of any further testing requested for a family member.
Refugee claimant coverage
Refugee claimant families in Amberlea should call with their Blue Cross details before the appointment. Bring each person's valid documents so staff can check eligibility and covered services.
Testing can vary with your medical history or IRCC instructions. The panel physician will confirm what is needed for your case.
After the family visit
Keeping each file moving.
A finished family visit does not yet mean the children's files have gone in. Canadian immigration medicals are submitted through eMedical when each person's exam and reports are finished. Keep every information sheet in that person's folder at home.
Give it two weeks before a parent calls to ask about submission. That period is our guideline for follow-up, not an IRCC processing timeline. If one family member needs another report or test, we will explain what is missing. If the family's phone number or email changes afterwards, please update us.
For questions about submission, contact our team. For updates on applications, check your IRCC account. The panel physician reports each person's findings, and IRCC makes the decision on the medical exam and the application. Read IRCC’s medical exam guidance.
Copies for the family
Keep a copy for each child?
After submission, you can request an electronic copy of each person's results. It is optional and does not change the eMedical submission the clinic completes.
$10 copy service fee
Allow up to one week after payment for electronic delivery.
Each copy lists the immigration test results completed for that case. If your children's doctor in Pickering would like to see a result, bring the report to your next checkup.
Order your resultsComing over from Amberlea
An easy drive east to Ajax.
Our clinic is at Suite 403, 300 Rossland Road East, Ajax, ON L1Z 0M1, inside Rossland Radiology. There is no charge to park, so you can unload strollers without rushing. Save the suite number with your booking so you can head straight up with the kids.
From Amberlea, most families reach Ajax by heading east along Highway 401 or Kingston Road. Search the full Rossland Road East address instead of just the town. Build in a few extra minutes for car seats, strollers and a last bathroom stop before the appointment.

Need a language other than English?
Parents often explain a child's health history more clearly in their home language. Our team speaks English, French, Dari, Farsi, Filipino, Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi and Arabic. Call ahead to confirm which language support is available or to plan for an interpreter.
Bringing several children at once?
Tell us the age of each child and adult, and how many medicals your family needs. If nap times, school hours or one car limit your options, mention it so the team can suggest suitable times.
