One Stop Immigration Medical
A medical that fits around Highland Creek classes and shifts.
Between lectures near the University of Toronto Scarborough campus and part-time work, free days are rare. Our Ajax clinic places your panel physician exam, on-site bloodwork and a chest X-ray in the same building, so one visit covers it.
For Highland Creek students and workers
Study permits, work permits and the medical in between.
With the University of Toronto Scarborough campus in the neighbourhood, Highland Creek has plenty of students and early-career workers, and an immigration medical can land in the middle of term or a new job. One Stop Immigration Medical in Ajax lets you complete the physician exam, blood collection and chest X-ray during a single appointment east of the city.
Separate the immigration requirement from anything your school or employer has asked for, then read what your own application says about the medical. Our staff can help you book the right appointment, explain what to bring and describe the exam before you arrive.
Matching the exam to your plans
- Canadian immigration medicals
- For Highland Creek residents applying for permanent residence, or students, workers, visitors and refugee claimants who need a medical. Bring any IRCC instruction so the appointment lines up.
- New Zealand medicals
- Continuing your studies or career in New Zealand after Highland Creek? Both the full and partial New Zealand medicals can be done at our Ajax suite. Send your examination instructions with your booking so we can arrange what is required.
- Embassy medicals
- Have plans in Saudi Arabia, Greece, Thailand or Taiwan? Ask us about an embassy medical, and forward that country's forms and testing requirements before booking.
A classmate's exam may not be yours.
Students on similar programs can still face different medical requirements. Look at whether your application calls for an upfront exam or one requested later by IRCC. If you have a letter in hand, tell our team about it and any deadline when you book from Highland Creek.
Review the official guidance for permanent residence applicants or visitors, students and workers.
Inside the Ajax clinic
How the appointment runs.
Highland Creek students can plan around one trip, since the exam and testing are completed at the same address. Ask how long to set aside before skipping a tutorial or swapping a shift, because a small number of cases need further reports or investigations.
Show your ID at Suite 403
Hand over your identification and any medical paperwork at check-in. Staff confirm the details that go into your file, so mention it if your passport is new or your name appears differently on your permit.
Discuss your health
Talk the panel physician through past conditions, prescriptions and ongoing care, including anything managed through a campus clinic. Raise questions about the exam or ask for support you may need.
Finish your tests
Staff tell you which tests apply to your case. Blood is drawn on site and the chest X-ray takes place in the same building, saving you a separate trip for imaging.
Leave with your information sheet
Keep the eMedical information sheet with your study or work documents. Check that nothing remains outstanding and follow your application instructions about submitting proof of the medical.
Getting ready near campus
Keep immigration papers apart from school forms.
A backpack full of course handouts and placement forms is an easy place to lose an IRCC letter. Put the documents for your medical in a dedicated folder, and if a partner or child is also attending, give their papers a folder of their own.
Notes from a campus health service or a family doctor are not sent to our clinic, so bring copies of anything relevant. Let us know ahead of time if you need language support, mobility assistance or would like someone with you. Choose comfortable clothing and follow any instructions the clinic sends.
Read the full exam preparation guideYour medical folder
- Your passport or other accepted ID, not just a student card.
- The IRCC request letter or form, if you have one, and your permit application instructions.
- Names and doses of all medicines you currently take, written down.
- Letters from specialists, clinic notes or previous results connected to your health.
- The glasses or contacts you wear in lectures, if you need them.
- Valid paperwork for refugee claimant coverage, if that applies to you.
Costs on a student budget
Know the cost before you book.
Check the age bands below to see what your own medical will cost, along with any family members attending. Different ages can need different tests, so ask for a total if you are booking for more than one person. Students who need an embassy medical or further investigations should ask the clinic about those costs on their 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
Cash and debit are accepted, and there is a $10 transaction fee for credit card payments. If extra testing is required for your case, ask the team about the cost first.
Refugee claimant coverage
Refugee claimants in Highland Creek should call ahead with Blue Cross coverage details. Bring valid documents on the day so the team can confirm eligibility and the services included.
Testing can vary with your medical history or IRCC instructions. The panel physician will confirm what is needed for your case.
Back to class
Following up after your medical.
Walking out of the clinic does not always mean your medical file is complete. Our clinic submits Canadian immigration medicals through eMedical after all required exams and reports are in. Store the information sheet with your permit and application documents.
Please allow two weeks before calling us about submission. This is simply our guideline for follow-up, not an IRCC processing timeline. Should your file need one more report or test, we will spell out the gap so you can plan around coursework. If you move residences or change phone numbers during term, update the clinic.
Highland Creek students can phone our Ajax staff to ask whether the clinic has submitted their medical. For the status of your permit or other application, check your IRCC account. The panel physician reports the findings, and IRCC makes the final decision. Read IRCC’s medical exam guidance.
Keeping your records
Want a copy of your results?
Once your case is submitted, an electronic copy can be requested for your own records. It is optional and does not replace the eMedical submission made by the clinic.
$10 copy service fee
Allow up to one week after payment for electronic delivery.
What you receive is limited to the immigration tests from your own appointment. If you want to review a result with a doctor near Highland Creek, keep the report ready for that visit.

Travelling east for your exam.
We are located at Suite 403, 300 Rossland Road East, Ajax, ON L1Z 0M1, inside Rossland Radiology. If a classmate or relative drives you, the building's parking is free. Add the suite number to your calendar entry so you can find check-in quickly.
If you have access to a car, Highway 401 leads east from Scarborough through Pickering to Ajax. Many students travel by transit instead, so check your route and your return trip before the day. Put the complete Rossland Road East address into your phone and give yourself extra time.
GO Lakeshore East trains stop at Guildwood and Rouge Hill, and switching from the TTC to GO or Durham Region Transit uses a different fare system, so plan the whole journey before you set out. Plan your trip with GO Transit
Comfortable discussing your health?
If English is not your first language, medical terms can be harder to follow. Our team speaks English, French, Dari, Farsi, Filipino, Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi and Arabic. Call ahead to find out who is available or to talk about bringing an interpreter.
Booking for a spouse or child too?
Tell us the ages of everyone who needs an exam and how many appointments you require. If your timing depends on class schedules, daycare or shared transit, let us know so the team can discuss options.
