One Stop Immigration Medical
Immigration medicals for the Claremont community.
Claremont sits in the rural north of Pickering, and our Ajax clinic is where residents come for their immigration medical. Bloodwork is completed in our suite, and chest X-rays are done in the same building.
Serving Claremont from Ajax
One journey south, one complete visit.
Living in a hamlet like Claremont usually means planning errands into town rather than popping out. Our Ajax clinic makes the medical worth the drive by keeping the panel physician exam, on-site bloodwork and the chest X-ray in the same building, so you do not need a second trip for testing.
In a small community, a relative, neighbour or friend often helps with the ride and the paperwork. However much support you have, the application instructions set out which medical you need. Our team will book it, explain what to bring and talk you and your support person through the visit in advance.
Medicals for Claremont applicants
- Canadian immigration medicals
- Claremont residents seeking permanent residence, or needing a medical as a worker, student, visitor or refugee claimant, are welcome. Keep any IRCC instructions to hand when you phone.
- New Zealand medicals
- If your plans lead from rural Pickering to New Zealand, we can complete full or partial medicals. Tell us what your examination instructions require when you book.
- Embassy medicals
- We provide embassy medicals for Saudi Arabia, Greece, Thailand and Taiwan. Send your destination's forms and testing list before arranging the appointment.
Let the applicant's documents lead.
A helpful family member may book on someone's behalf, but the details should come from the applicant's own documents. Check whether an upfront medical or an exam after a request applies. If IRCC sent a letter, have it in front of you, along with any deadline, when you call from Claremont.
Review the official guidance for permanent residence applicants or visitors, students and workers.
Inside the Ajax clinic
Your appointment, from arrival to the drive home.
Once you arrive in Ajax, the medical is completed within the same building. Ask about the expected length of the visit before your driver plans the rest of their day, since an additional report or test is sometimes necessary.
Arrive and identify yourself
At Suite 403, provide your identification and medical paperwork. Let staff know about any spelling that differs between documents or a passport that was recently renewed.
Talk privately with the physician
The panel physician reviews your health history, medication and ongoing care. You can explain whether you would like your support person in the room or prefer to speak on your own.
Complete the tests
Staff tell you which tests are part of your medical. Blood is drawn in our suite, and the chest X-ray takes place in the same building, so you can head back north once you are finished.
Check before the drive home
Keep the eMedical information sheet from the clinic. Ask whether anything remains to be done before the long drive, and follow your application's instructions for proof of the exam.
Before setting off from Claremont
Share the plan with your support person.
If someone is driving you or helping with forms, go over the documents together the day before. Put the applicant's passport, letter and records in one folder and let the applicant hold it. That way, the person attending stays in charge of their own paperwork.
Records from your doctor will not be sent to the clinic automatically, so pack copies of anything relevant to your health. Call us before the visit if you need language help, mobility assistance or would like a companion with you. Wear comfortable clothing and follow any personal instructions provided.
Read the full exam preparation guidePut in the folder before leaving
- Your passport, or another identity document the medical accepts.
- The letter or form requesting a medical, if issued, plus the instructions for your application.
- Medication names and doses, written down for the physician.
- Any specialist reports, earlier results or medical documents connected to your health.
- Glasses or contact lenses if you need them to read.
- Valid documents for refugee claimant coverage, if that is how you are paying.
Fees for Claremont residents
Confirm the cost before the trip.
Fees are based on the age bands below. If more than one person is coming, the totals may vary, so ask for the combined amount when you book. Embassy medicals and extra investigations fall outside these bands, so raise them with the clinic during that call.
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
Bring cash or a debit card for the visit; a credit card works too, though it adds a $10 transaction fee. Ask what any additional testing would cost so there are no surprises.
Refugee claimant coverage
Refugee claimants in Claremont should call with their Blue Cross coverage details before the appointment. Pack those valid documents for the trip south so staff can review eligibility and covered services on the spot.
Testing can vary with your medical history or IRCC instructions. The panel physician will confirm what is needed for your case.
Once you are home in Claremont
What happens with your file.
Completing the visit and submitting the file are not the same thing. When the required examination and all reports are complete, the clinic submits Canadian immigration medicals through eMedical. Keep the information sheet in the same place as your other application documents.
Hold off for two weeks before asking the clinic whether your medical has gone through. It is a clinic guideline for follow-up, not a statement about IRCC timing. If a further report or test is needed, we will explain what remains and help you plan the return trip. Let us know if your phone number or mailing details change.
Phone our team from Claremont if you have questions about the clinic's submission. Your IRCC account shows where the application stands. The panel physician supplies the medical findings, and IRCC makes the final decision on the exam and application. Read IRCC’s medical exam guidance.
For your records at home
Want a copy of your results?
Once your case is submitted, you can request an electronic copy of the results. It is optional, and the eMedical submission does not depend on it.
$10 copy service fee
Allow up to one week after payment for electronic delivery.
Inside the copy are the immigration tests performed for your medical. Keep it available if you want to go over a result with your own doctor.
