Physician examination. Bloodwork and chest X-rays are not routinely required for this age group.
One Stop Immigration Medical
Northglen parents, plan the medical around the school bell.
Drop-off, pickup and homework leave little room in a weekday. Our Ajax panel physicians complete the exam with bloodwork on site and chest X-rays in the same building, so a child's medical can stay one well-planned outing.
For Northglen families with school-age children
Less time away from the classroom.
For Northglen parents, the hardest part of a child's medical is often fitting it around the school timetable. At our Ajax clinic, a panel physician sees your child, blood can be drawn in the same suite and chest X-rays are done in the building, which keeps the time out of class more predictable.
Whether your children started school here last month or have been in Oshawa classrooms for years, begin with the instructions for each child's application. Our team can help you book the right appointment and explain the documents to bring for a young patient.
Find the medical that applies
- Canadian immigration medicals
- For Northglen children and adults applying for permanent residence, study, work, a visit or refugee protection. Keep any IRCC request on hand when you call so we arrange the correct exam.
- New Zealand medicals
- If your Northglen family is moving to New Zealand, we provide full and partial medicals. Send the examination instructions ahead so the team can confirm what is required.
- Embassy medicals
- Will the children be starting school in Saudi Arabia, Greece, Thailand or Taiwan? Ask about embassy medicals, and send us the destination's forms and testing requirements before you settle on a date.
Each child may have different instructions.
Siblings applying together do not always need identical medicals, and a parent's requirements can differ again. Check whether each application asks for an upfront exam or one following an IRCC request. If a letter has arrived, let our team know the deadline it gives so the booking can work around it.
Review the official guidance for permanent residence applicants or visitors, students and workers.
What a child's visit looks like
From the front desk to the ride home.
Grouped testing means Northglen families are not moving between separate offices with tired children. Ask how long to expect before you tell the school about an absence, because sometimes an extra report or investigation is needed.
Check in together
A parent or guardian presents the child's identification and paperwork at Suite 403. Mention if a name is spelled differently on school records or if the passport was recently renewed.
Meet the physician
The panel physician asks about the child's health history, medicines and any current care. Parents can share what helps their child feel settled or ask questions about the examination.
Tests explained clearly
Staff tell you which tests apply to your child. Bloodwork happens on site and chest X-rays are in the same building, so you avoid an extra trip on another school day.
Confirm before leaving
Keep the eMedical information sheet in your child's folder. Ask whether anything is outstanding, then follow the application instructions for providing proof that the exam was done.
The evening before
Pack two bags: one for papers, one for comfort.
A child's snack, water and a favourite book have a habit of crowding out the paperwork. Keep identification and request letters in their own folder, separate from the bag your child carries. If more than one child is attending, give each of them a clearly named folder.
Bring copies of vaccination records and any reports from your child's doctor, since we do not receive them automatically. Let us know ahead of time if your child needs language support, mobility help or a particular adult with them. Dress them comfortably and follow any individual preparation guidance.

- A list of medicines your child takes, with names and doses.
- Relevant medical reports, specialist letters or earlier test results.
- Glasses or contact lenses, if your child wears them.
- Current refugee claimant coverage papers for your child, if you are relying on that coverage.
Costs for Northglen families
Budget for each child before you book.
Check the age bands below, as a younger child and a teenager may fall into different fee groups. Tests can also vary with age, so ask the team to confirm the total for all your children and any adults attending. Embassy medicals and additional investigations are priced separately.
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
Northglen parents can settle the bill with cash or debit, or with a credit card plus the $10 transaction fee. Ask the team about the cost of any extra testing requested for your child's case.
Refugee claimant coverage
Refugee claimant families in Northglen should call before the visit with their Blue Cross coverage details. Bring valid documents for each family member so eligibility and coverage can be confirmed.
Testing can vary with your medical history or IRCC instructions. The panel physician will confirm what is needed for your case.
After the school day
Keep the follow-up simple.
Leaving the clinic does not mean your child's medical file is finished. When everything required for your child is in, our Ajax team sends the Canadian immigration medical through eMedical. Put the information sheet in the child's folder with the rest of the application papers.
Give it two full weeks, roughly ten school days, before phoning about your child's submission. That is our follow-up guideline, not a measure of IRCC processing time. If another test or report is needed for your child, we will explain what is missing. Should your phone number or email change after the visit, pass the new details to us.
Our team can answer questions about the clinic's submission, while your IRCC account shows the application's progress. The panel physician supplies the medical findings; IRCC decides on the medical exam and the application. Read IRCC’s medical exam guidance.
For your child's records
Keep a copy at home?
After the case is submitted, you can request an electronic copy of your child's results. Whether or not you order it, your child's eMedical submission is unaffected.
$10 copy service fee
Allow up to one week after payment for electronic delivery.
The copy lists the immigration tests completed for your child's case. If you would like to talk about a result with your child's doctor or paediatrician, keep the report with you for that appointment.
Order your resultsGetting from Northglen to Ajax
Timing the trip around school hours.
Our clinic is at Suite 403, 300 Rossland Road East, Ajax, ON L1Z 0M1, inside Rossland Radiology. There is no Oshawa branch, and free parking is available at the building. Keep the suite number with your booking so you can head straight to check-in with your child.
Many Oshawa families drive west on Highway 401 through Whitby to reach Ajax. Think about whether you will leave from home, from the school or from work, and plan the drive from that starting point. Enter the full Rossland Road East address and allow extra time so a child is not hurried into the appointment.
Using the bus with children? Check every connection and the return trip before school day. Plan your trip with Durham Region Transit
Language support for parents and children
Parents often find it easier to describe a child's health history in their own language. Our team speaks English, French, Dari, Farsi, Filipino, Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi and Arabic. Phone before the appointment to check who is available, or to discuss bringing an interpreter.
Booking for several children?
Tell us how many medicals you need and the age of each child or adult. If school hours, a younger sibling at home or a working parent limits your options, mention it so the team can talk about appointment times.
