UrgentMed’s two Broward clinics do the USCIS immigration medical exam for Form I-693 as a walk-in visit, seven days a week, with designated civil surgeons at both. For a law firm that means a client can be seen the week the file is ready — no appointment to chase — and the sealed I-693 is usually back in a few business days, ready to go into the I-485 package. The details patients read are on the immigration medical exam page; this one is for your office.
What your clients get
- No appointment. Walk in at Davie (5149 S University Drive) or Plantation (10199 Cleary Boulevard, Suite 10), any day of the week.
- One building. The exam, the TB blood test, the lab draw and, when it is needed, the chest X-ray all happen on site; the vaccines the clinic stocks — tetanus, hepatitis B, MMR, varicella and polio, and flu in season — can be given at the same visit.
- Spanish-speaking staff at both clinics.
- A few business days to the sealed I-693 once lab results return; the client is called if a repeat test or a chest X-ray is needed.
- A price quoted up front. The exam is self-pay and not billed to insurance; the front desk quotes the exam, the labs and any vaccines before the client is seen.
What your office gets
- A copy of the completed I-693 for your file, when the client signs a release naming your office at the front desk. The original stays sealed for filing.
- Timing you can plan around. Since December 2, 2024, USCIS wants the sealed I-693 in the package when the I-485 is filed; walk-in access lets the exam happen when the rest of the file is ready.
- A clinic that answers the phone during clinic hours: Davie (954) 423-9234 · Plantation (954) 473-8565.
How to send a client
- Tell the client to walk in at either clinic, or reserve a place online, with a photo ID, the current Form I-693 unsigned, and every vaccination record they have — records in another language need a reliable English translation.
- If your office wants a copy of the completed form, give the client your office’s contact details for the release.
- The civil surgeon examines the client, the labs are drawn, and the stocked vaccines that are due can be given; the client signs the I-693 in front of the civil surgeon.
- When the results are back, the civil surgeon completes and signs the form and seals it in the USCIS envelope. The client files it unopened with the I-485.
