FAQ
How long does it take to complete my private visa medicals?
As we have the facilities to perform all necessary follow-up tests and examinations in-house and we also process all results in our private laboratory, the process usually only takes a few days.
However, we recommend you schedule your visa medical appointment at least 3 weeks before travel to allow enough time for additional testing, preparing the documentation and resolving any potential health issues that may be uncovered during your assessment.
Do I need to bring a photo ID to my visa medical appointment?
Yes, you are required to bring a form of photo identification to your appointment. Please consult with the Midland Health team for any other documents that you may need to bring with you, as well.
How long does the private visa medical take?
GP consultations can last 30 – 60 minutes depending on your specific requirements. The team will advise on the length of the appointment required when the visa application form is reviewed by one of our expert GPs.
Follow-up tests and imaging can be done as soon as the same or the following day (subject to availability), as we house GP and specialists under the same roof in our private clinic in Edgbaston.
Your results will be ready within a few days, depending on the type of tests you have undergone. We can email your visa medical report over to you and provide you with the original.
Following that, it takes up to 3-5 working days to complete your visa medical certificate.
Do you offer any other travel-related services?
Yes, at Midland Health, we also offer private travel vaccination services, as well as COVID-19 tests for travel. You can also speak to our GPs about prescription medicine when travelling abroad.
We have translators available for your appointment.
