Start here: civil surgeons for Dania Beach applicants

USCIS requires that your medical exam be performed by a designated civil surgeon — not just any licensed physician in Florida. A regular family doctor in Broward County cannot sign this form unless they hold the USCIS designation — the Florida civil surgeon directory lists doctors who do.

Compare price and language

Base fees near Dania Beach generally sit in the $200–$500 band typical for Florida; vaccines, titers, and TB testing add to that. Language support across Broward County commonly includes Spanish, Haitian Creole, Portuguese and Russian. With fewer providers based directly in Dania Beach, most applicants use offices in Miramar or elsewhere in Broward County.

Start online if you are not near a doctor

If the nearest civil surgeon to Dania Beach is a drive away, begin with a virtual pre-consult to get your documents in order first, then visit in person only to complete and seal the form.

Form I-693 questions Dania Beach applicants ask

What if I do not have my vaccination records?

Missing records are common. The doctor can run titer tests to prove immunity or simply re-administer required vaccines. Flag it when you book so extra time is set aside.

How is tuberculosis tested during the exam?

TB screening is usually a simple blood draw (an IGRA test). If it comes back positive, the civil surgeon orders follow-up such as a chest X-ray before finalizing your form.

Is an interpreter allowed at the appointment?

You may bring a translator, and it is worth asking about in-house language support: several practices serving Broward County have multilingual teams.

What should I budget for the exam in Dania Beach?

Around Dania Beach, the exam itself usually costs $200–$500. Vaccines, titers, and TB testing are billed on top, so incomplete records raise the total.

Can my family doctor do my immigration physical?

Only physicians holding the USCIS civil surgeon designation may complete Form I-693. A regular Broward County family doctor, however good, cannot sign it without that designation.

Can any part of the exam happen online?

No exam can be completed entirely online. The virtual pre-consult handles document review and preparation; the physical exam and sealed signature must happen in person.
