Jet Medical Center® is pleased to offer immigration physical services. Dr. Choksi is a licensed US Civil Surgeon who has been authorized by USCIS to conduct Immigration Physicals for the Department of Homeland Security. Individuals applying for citizenship or are seeking permanent residency or a Green Card for employment are required to obtain an immigration physical performed by a designated Civil Surgeon prior to approval of their application. The exam results will be recorded on Form I-693 for the applicant to return to the USCIS (INS). The exam process generally takes 3-5 days, depending on lab processing times. AT JET MEDICAL CENTER®, MOST EVALUATIONS CAN BE COMPLETED IN 2 VISITS. Our goal is to efficiently and affordably provide immigration physical exam evaluations with appropriate testing in the shortest time. We welcome you to the United States to live the American Dream!
