Private Visa Medicals Birmingham

Private Visa Medicals are a faster way to check boxes on your visa application. Private examinations are quicker and more comprehensive than their publicly available alternatives. We have a team of highly experienced GPs based in Birmingham and specialists who will provide the expert knowledge you need to obtain a complete Visa Medical certificate.

Visa Medicals are necessary when working, living or studying abroad in particular countries. Each country has its own rules and requirements you must adhere to to have your application approved. They exist to prove your medical fitness and confirm that you can live and work in the country you intend to travel to.

Depending on the country you’re travelling to, you may need to meet additional requirements for your Visa Medical certificate. You should verify the specific tests you need with the relevant authorities before your examination.

Your consultation will include a conversation regarding your overall health and medical history. Then, you may have to undergo blood tests to confirm your health status. You will then have a physical examination, which may be observational and only include your height and weight, or you may be required to have your heart rate measured.

Depending on your overall health status, we may also schedule you for follow-up blood tests, X-rays, ECGs and other additional investigations.

A Visa Medical is an assessment you must complete during the application process for a visa that will guarantee you acquire a completed medical report and better your chances of being accepted.

Your Visa Medical Assessment appointment should only take about an hour to complete, and you can expect your results within about five days of your visit.

If we deem it necessary, you may have to have additional blood tests, x-rays, and ECGs. This will ensure you have no underlying health problems and that you are medically fit to work in the UK.

First, you will have a consultation with us to discuss your overall health and medical history. Then, we’ll physically examine you, confirming your height and weight, perform a blood test and measure your heart rate.

After these tests are complete, you may be booked for a second appointment for more blood tests, X-rays and ECGs. This depends on the requirements of your destination country and will all be done without the need for referrals at Oakley Medical.

You’ll need to complete the necessary paperwork once your private Visa Medicals are finished. When your application is complete, you can collect your certificate or we’ll deliver it to you.

Your certificate will remain valid for 12 months after its issue date.
