Hello, I was wondering if any of you could share their medical test experience. What are you required to bring with you, what do they do to you, how long it takes, and how much is it (especially for UK citizens, but any experiences are welcome) Many thanks.

Mine was a painless short procedure. Went in took a blood sample, urine sample, filled out a few forms. Doc came in asked me a few medical questions. Didn't do much of a typical physical exam, can't even remember what he exactly checked besides my ankels? which was weird. Then I was sent a few blocks down to get chest xray. Whole process was less then and hour. I paid roughly 300, but mine was in US. I took with me my passport, the required form, money and photo requirement.

Medical is simple process, no need to get tense.Consist of few question regarding your health like any existing disease or any past disease or operation.Then physical examination, which include height and weight measurment, blood pressure,pulse and examination of chest and abdomen.Next step is investigations: chest x ray, blood examinatin, urine examination.

@ Max - I had mine done in Chicago. Unfortunate no DMP in Indiana. I called around to Illinois, Tennesee, and Ohio to compare pricing and went with the cheapest.

For me initially thay asked me to do the chest X-Ray and then as follows. You need to show your photo identification such as passport and they take blood and urine sample, and then they will check your full body and finally you need to answer few questions and then sign the declaration. For me they charged £210.00 (This includes chest xray). I did it London Regards,

I had mine done in Chicago for 256 total. The other choices of DMP's in Chicago as well as with the surrounding cities (Cinnicinnati, Louisville) cost a 100-150 more.
