One Stop Immigration Medical
Timing your medical from Northwood.
Should you book now or wait for a request? Northwood applicants can sort out the timing first, then visit our Ajax clinic for the panel physician exam, bloodwork in the suite and chest X-rays in the same building.
Helping Northwood applicants plan
Get the timing settled, then the trip.
Booking too early or too late can create extra steps, so Northwood households often ask us about timing before anything else. Once the date is right, our Ajax clinic covers the physician exam and blood collection in one suite, and the chest X-ray is completed in the same building.
Some people in Northwood are preparing an application they have not sent yet, while others are responding to a letter that has already arrived. Read the guidance tied to your own file and note whether a medical is expected now. Our team can then book the correct appointment and outline the documents to bring.
Match your exam to your Northwood file
- Canadian immigration medicals
- For Northwood residents applying for permanent residence or for a work, study or visitor permit, and for refugee claimants. If IRCC has already requested a medical, have that request ready when you book.
- New Zealand medicals
- Getting ready to move from Northwood to New Zealand? Both full and partial medicals are offered here. Send your examination instructions early so we can arrange what your application needs.
- Embassy medicals
- We also help with embassy medicals for Saudi Arabia, Greece, Thailand and Taiwan. Before booking, share the destination's forms and its testing requirements with us.
Upfront or on request?
Some applications let you complete the medical before you submit, while others wait for IRCC to issue instructions. A friend's timeline will not tell you which applies to you. Check your own program guidance, and if a letter has arrived with a deadline, share it with our team when you call.
Review the official guidance for permanent residence applicants or visitors, students and workers.
Your appointment in order
Four stages, one building.
Keeping the exam and testing together helps you plan around a single block of time. Ask how long to expect before you book childcare or a day off, because sometimes a case calls for an extra report or investigation.
Start at reception
Bring your accepted ID and the medical instructions for your application. Staff open your file using these details, so tell them about any name differences or a newly issued passport.
Health review with the physician
Be ready to describe earlier illnesses, regular medication and any care in progress. If something about the exam concerns you, or you need an accommodation, now is the time to say.
Testing in the same building
You will be told which tests your file requires. Bloodwork is done in our suite and chest X-rays nearby in the building, which saves Northwood patients from arranging another trip.
Wrap up and confirm
Take the eMedical information sheet home and store it safely. Ask if anything is outstanding, and use your application instructions to provide proof that the exam was completed.
Planning from Northwood
Prepare once the date is fixed.
When a medical is booked well ahead, documents can drift back into drawers before the day arrives. Return each person's papers to a dedicated folder the week before and match every passport to the right family member. That simple check prevents last-minute searching.
Bring any relevant medical records, even if your regular doctor is in Oshawa, because they are not shared with our clinic. Contact us beforehand about language support, mobility needs or a companion. Wear something comfortable and follow any specific preparation guidance you receive.
Read the full exam preparation guideHave these in your folder
- Identification that is accepted for the immigration medical, such as a passport.
- Any request letter or medical form you have, plus the instructions for your program.
- Names and doses of all medicines you currently use, written clearly.
- Earlier test results, specialist letters or reports linked to your health.
- Whatever eyewear you need to see clearly, glasses or contacts.
- Current refugee claimant coverage documents, if you are relying on that coverage.
Costs for Northwood households
Price it out early.
The fee depends on the age bands below, applied to each attendee. If several generations are booked together, the tests and totals may differ from person to person, so confirm the overall amount with us. Embassy medicals and extra investigations are priced separately, so speak to the clinic about them.
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 or debit avoids the $10 transaction fee added to credit card payments. Ask what any additional testing for your case will cost before it is done.
Refugee claimant coverage
If you are a refugee claimant in Northwood, phone us with your Blue Cross details before your appointment. Bring valid documents so staff can confirm eligibility and coverage.
Testing can vary with your medical history or IRCC instructions. The panel physician will confirm what is needed for your case.
After the appointment
Keep your timeline on track.
Finishing the visit is one milestone; finishing the medical file is another. Our clinic submits Canadian immigration medicals through eMedical when the necessary exam and reports are all complete. Keep your information sheet in the same folder as your application copies.
Allow two weeks before calling us to check on the submission. This is our follow-up guideline and is unrelated to IRCC processing. If a report or test is still missing, the team will let you know. Keep your phone number and email current with us after the visit.
Bring questions about the clinic's submission to our team, and look in your IRCC account for application updates. The panel physician supplies the findings; IRCC makes the decision on the medical exam and your application. Read IRCC’s medical exam guidance.
Your own reference
Would a results copy be useful?
Northwood patients may request an electronic copy of their results once the case has been submitted. It is optional and does not change the submission sent through eMedical.
$10 copy service fee
Allow up to one week after payment for electronic delivery.
That copy details each immigration test completed during your visit. If you want to review a result with your family doctor or another provider in Oshawa, have the report ready.
Order your resultsOn the road from Northwood
Plan your journey to the Ajax clinic.
Our clinic is at Suite 403, 300 Rossland Road East, Ajax, ON L1Z 0M1, inside Rossland Radiology, and we have no location in Northwood or elsewhere in Oshawa. You will not pay to park at the building. Keep the suite number handy so you can check in without delay.
Northwood drivers can reach Ajax by Highway 401 through Whitby, and some north Oshawa residents choose Highway 407 for part of the trip. Durham Region Transit is an option if you are not driving. Look up the full Rossland Road East address in advance and allow plenty of time.
Coming by transit? Map your route there and back before the appointment. Plan your trip with Durham Region Transit
Need to talk in another language?
Medical questions are easier to answer accurately in a language that feels natural. Our team speaks English, French, Dari, Farsi, Filipino, Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi and Arabic. Give us a ring ahead of the appointment to see which language speakers are working, or to tell us an interpreter will join you.
Coordinating several family members?
Share each person's age and the number of medicals when booking. If school, work hours or limited transport affect which days suit you, tell us and the team will help you look at options.
