One Stop Immigration Medical
Immigration medicals for Samac students and workers.
Between lectures, part-time shifts and permit paperwork, a medical can feel like one more deadline. Our Ajax clinic groups the physician exam, bloodwork and chest X-ray in a single building on Rossland Road East.
Samac applicants, seen in Ajax
Fit the medical between classes and shifts.
Plenty of people living in Samac split their week between a campus timetable and a part-time job. Rather than chasing separate labs and imaging offices, you can see a panel physician at our Ajax clinic, give blood on site and have a chest X-ray without leaving the building.
If you are enrolled at Ontario Tech University or Durham College, or working while a family member studies, the starting point is the same: the written instructions for your own application. Share them with our team and we will help you book the medical that matches your file and list the papers to carry.
Pick the exam your application calls for
- Canadian immigration medicals
- For Samac residents on a study or work permit, visiting, claiming refugee protection or moving toward permanent residence. Have any IRCC request open when you call so we book the correct medical.
- New Zealand medicals
- Planning a move from Samac to New Zealand after your studies? Both full and partial New Zealand medicals can be arranged for Samac applicants. Pass along your examination instructions so we can match the services to your application.
- Embassy medicals
- Saudi Arabia, Greece, Thailand or Taiwan on your horizon? Reach out about an embassy medical, and send us that destination's forms and testing requirements before you schedule.
A roommate's booking is not your booking.
Two students sharing a house in Samac can need quite different medicals, even when their programs look alike. Confirm whether your application wants an upfront exam or one done after IRCC asks for it. If a request letter has arrived, tell our Ajax team about it and the date it sets.
Review the official guidance for permanent residence applicants or visitors, students and workers.
A visit built around your timetable
Step by step at Suite 403.
With testing gathered under one roof, you can usually plan the visit as a single outing rather than several trips. Ask how long the appointment tends to take before you skip a lab or swap a shift, because further reports or investigations are sometimes needed.
Hand over your ID
Front desk staff create your medical file from your identification and instructions. If your passport was reissued abroad or your name appears differently on school records, say so right away.
Speak with the physician
Your panel physician goes over your health background, medications and any treatment underway. Mention anything you feel uneasy about, or support that would make the examination easier for you.
Do the tests on your list
Staff explain which tests your case involves. Blood is drawn in the clinic and chest X-rays are done elsewhere in the building, so you are not left booking a second stop around class.
Ask what remains
Tuck the eMedical information sheet somewhere safe. Before leaving, check whether any item is still open, then follow your application instructions on how to show proof of the medical.
Getting ready in Samac
Keep the paperwork out of your backpack clutter.
Student bags collect notebooks, chargers and loose receipts, which is exactly where a request letter goes missing. Set aside a dedicated envelope for your passport and medical forms the night before. If a partner or sibling is attending too, give their documents an envelope of their own.
Records from a campus health service or a doctor back home are not automatically shared with us, so bring copies of anything relevant. Call ahead if you would like language help, mobility assistance or a friend in the room with you. Choose comfortable clothes and follow any preparation advice addressed to you personally.
Read the full exam preparation guideSamac pre-visit checklist
- Your passport or another identity document accepted for immigration medicals.
- The request letter or medical form, if you received one, and your application instructions.
- A written list of current medications showing names and doses.
- Copies of related medical reports, specialist notes or past results.
- Glasses or contacts, so you are not squinting through the eye chart.
- Valid coverage papers if you are applying for refugee claimant coverage.
Planning costs on a student budget
Check the price before payday.
The age bands below set the fee for each person, which makes it easier to plan around tuition and rent. If a spouse or child is booking alongside you, their tests may differ, so ask for the combined total when you call. Pricing for embassy medicals, and for any investigation beyond the standard exam, is handled as a separate conversation.
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 extra charges; a $10 transaction fee applies when you pay by credit card. If your case needs further testing, ask the team what that will add.
Refugee claimant coverage
Refugee claimants living in Samac should call before the visit with their Blue Cross coverage details. Bring valid documents to the appointment so eligibility and covered services can be confirmed.
Testing can vary with your medical history or IRCC instructions. The panel physician will confirm what is needed for your case.
Back to class afterwards
Your file keeps moving after you leave.
Walking out of the clinic is not the same as having a finished medical file. Our Ajax team submits Canadian immigration medicals through eMedical once the exam and any required reports are complete. Store your information sheet with your permit and enrolment papers.
Give it two weeks before phoning about your submission. That timeframe is a clinic follow-up guide, not an estimate of IRCC processing. Should another test or report be needed, we will tell you what is missing. If you change phone plans or move residences, send us your new contact details.
Ask our team about the clinic's submission, and use your IRCC account to follow your application. The panel physician provides the medical findings, while IRCC decides on the medical exam and the application itself. Read IRCC’s medical exam guidance.
A copy for your records
Like to hold on to your results?
Samac students who like keeping digital records can order an electronic results copy once the case is submitted. It is an optional extra and has no effect on what the clinic sends through eMedical.
$10 copy service fee
Allow up to one week after payment for electronic delivery.
Every immigration test from your Samac booking is listed there, from bloodwork to the chest X-ray where applicable. If you want a campus clinician or family doctor to look over a result, keep the report on hand for that visit.

Heading west to our Ajax suite.
Come to Suite 403, 300 Rossland Road East, Ajax, ON L1Z 0M1, inside Rossland Radiology. This Ajax suite is our only clinic, and there is no office in Oshawa. Free parking is available at the building, and saving the suite number in your phone will help you find check-in quickly.
Students without a car often rely on Durham Region Transit, and Oshawa GO station connects to Ajax on the Lakeshore East line. If you are getting a lift, Highway 401 runs west through Whitby to Ajax. Type the full Rossland Road East address into your maps app and allow a cushion for the trip so you are not rushing to the suite.

Prefer to talk in another language?
Medical terms in a second language can be tiring, especially after a long week of classes. Our team speaks English, French, Dari, Farsi, Filipino, Punjabi, Urdu, Hindi and Arabic. Call before your visit to see who is available, or to talk about bringing an interpreter with you.
Booking with a partner or child?
Tell us how many medicals you need and the age of each person attending. If your options are shaped by lecture times, exam season or a part-time roster, say so when you call and the team will look at appointment times with you.
