One Stop Immigration Medical
Immigration medicals for Applecroft households.
Settling into Applecroft while your application moves ahead? Our Ajax clinic keeps the trip short, with your panel physician exam, bloodwork and chest X-ray handled in one building.
Close to home for Applecroft
One local stop among your settling-in errands.
The first months in a new neighbourhood bring a long list of jobs: opening accounts, finding a family doctor, learning the bus routes. Your immigration medical does not have to add a long journey to that list. Applecroft residents can see a panel physician at our Ajax clinic, give blood samples on site and have chest X-rays taken in the same building.
Before you pick up the phone, read the medical instructions that came with your own application, since they decide which exam you need. Once you know, our staff can set a time, list the papers to bring and explain how the visit will unfold.
Match the exam to your plans
- Canadian immigration medicals
- For Applecroft newcomers and long-time residents applying for permanent residence, or for a work permit, study permit, visitor status or refugee claim that calls for a medical. Bring any IRCC request so the booking lines up with it.
- New Zealand medicals
- If your next move is from Applecroft to New Zealand, our Ajax clinic provides both full and partial medicals. Pass along your examination instructions when booking so the right services are arranged.
- Embassy medicals
- Is Applecroft just one stop before Saudi Arabia, Greece, Thailand or Taiwan? Ask about embassy medicals, and send over the forms and required tests for your destination before a visit is scheduled.
Your file sets the type of appointment.
Advice from a friend who arrived last year may not fit your situation. Find out whether your application asks for a medical up front or only after IRCC sends instructions. If you already hold a request letter, mention it and its deadline when you call our Ajax team.
Review the official guidance for permanent residence applicants or visitors, students and workers.
A short trip from Applecroft
How your appointment unfolds.
Everything required for the medical takes place under one roof, which suits a busy settling-in week. Ask how long the visit usually runs before you plan a job interview or another errand for the same day, as extra reports or investigations are sometimes requested.
Register at the front desk
Arrive at Suite 403 with your identification and any medical paperwork. If your name appears differently on an older document, or your passport was issued recently, let staff know as your file is created.
Speak with the doctor
The panel physician will ask about past illnesses, medicines you take and any care you received before moving. Feel free to ask what each part of the exam involves or to request an accommodation.
Have your tests done
A staff member goes over the tests your particular file calls for. Blood is drawn on site and chest X-rays are taken in the same building, so you can finish without travelling to another address.
Collect your information sheet
Tuck the eMedical information sheet into your newcomer document folder. Ask whether anything is still to be completed, then follow your application instructions on how to show that the exam was done.
Getting organised in Applecroft
Sort your papers while you unpack.
After a move, important documents can end up in different boxes or suitcases. Gather passports, request letters and health records into a single place and give each family member a labelled envelope. Check that each identification document belongs to the person who will be examined.
Records from a doctor in your previous country will not reach the clinic on their own, so bring copies yourself, with translations if you have them. Tell us in advance if you would like support in another language, need help moving around or are bringing a companion. Choose comfortable clothes and follow any preparation advice the clinic sends you.

- For each newcomer attending, a passport or other ID that the clinic can accept for the medical.

- A written list of the medicines you take, including the dose of each.
- Health reports, specialist letters or test results carried over from your previous doctor.
- Eyeglasses or contacts, if you wear them day to day.
- Your valid coverage documents if you are asking about refugee claimant coverage.
Costs for Applecroft residents
Check the price before your appointment.
Each newcomer's fee depends on the age band they fall into, as listed below. Adults and children may need different tests, so ask the team to total the cost for your household when you book. For an embassy medical or any additional investigation, the clinic will talk through pricing with you on its own.
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
You can pay with cash or debit. Credit cards are accepted with a $10 transaction fee. If the physician asks for more testing, check the extra cost with the team.
Refugee claimant coverage
Applecroft refugee claimants should phone with their Blue Cross coverage details before the appointment. Bring valid documents with you so staff can check eligibility and which services are covered.
Testing can vary with your medical history or IRCC instructions. The panel physician will confirm what is needed for your case.
After your appointment
Following up from Applecroft.
Heading back to Applecroft after your appointment does not mean your medical file is finished. Once the required examination and reports are complete, our team submits Canadian immigration medicals through eMedical. Keep the information sheet alongside your other immigration paperwork.
Give the clinic two weeks before you call about your submission. This is a guideline for checking in with us, not a measure of IRCC processing time. If another report or test is required, we will tell you what remains. If you change your phone number or email while getting settled, please update us.
If you are unsure whether the clinic has sent your medical, our team can tell you. To see how your application is progressing, sign in to your IRCC account. IRCC, not the clinic, makes the final call on your exam and application, using the findings the panel physician reports. Read IRCC’s medical exam guidance.
A copy for your records
Keep your own set of results?
When your case has been submitted, you may order an electronic copy to keep. This is optional and has no effect on the clinic's eMedical submission.
$10 copy service fee
Allow up to one week after payment for electronic delivery.
The copy lists the immigration tests completed for you. Once you find a family doctor in Ajax, it can be useful to share if you want to talk about a result.

A nearby address on Rossland Road East.
Come to Suite 403, 300 Rossland Road East, Ajax, ON L1Z 0M1, inside Rossland Radiology. If you have only just got a car in Canada, you can park for free at the building. Write the suite number on your appointment reminder so you know exactly where to go once you are inside.
Because Applecroft is part of Ajax, your trip to the clinic stays local. Type the full Rossland Road East address into your map app rather than relying on memory, especially if the roads are still new to you, and give yourself time to reach the suite before your booking. If a neighbour is offering a ride, share the address and agree on a time to meet afterwards.

Booking for a newly arrived household?
Let us know how many people need a medical and how old each person is. If you are still arranging school enrolment or childcare in Applecroft, mention your constraints so the team can suggest appointment times that fit.
