Virtual immigration physical pre-consult

Not near a civil surgeon yet, or want to prepare before your appointment? Start online with Dapinder Kaur, FNP. Your virtual pre-consult walks you through the Form I-693 process, reviews your documents and vaccination records, and gets you ready — in English, Hindi, or Punjabi — so your in-person visit to seal the form is quick and stress-free.

A civil surgeon must still examine you in person and physically sign Form I-693. The virtual pre-consult prepares you; it does not replace the required exam.

Choosing a civil surgeon in Palm Beach County

The medical exam is a mandatory green card step for Wellington applicants, and only a USCIS-designated civil surgeon can complete it. That rules out most Palm Beach County family practices, which is why Wellington applicants use a directory like the Florida civil surgeon directory to find qualified providers.

Compare price and language

Exam costs around Wellington usually fall within the Florida range of $200 to $500, with vaccines and lab work billed separately. If English is not your first language, note that offices serving Palm Beach County frequently offer Spanish, Haitian Creole and Portuguese. Wellington applicants can usually choose between local offices and providers in nearby Greenacres.

Start online if you are not near a doctor

If the nearest civil surgeon to Wellington 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.

Before you book in Wellington: quick answers

Plan for 30–60 minutes in the office. Catch-up vaccines or a TB blood draw can extend the visit somewhat.
Every applicant, including children, needs their own Form I-693. Most offices can schedule family members back to back — mention it when booking.
Appointment policies differ office to office. Calling ahead is always the safer move — peak seasons can book out days in advance.
The civil surgeon can order titers — blood tests that check your immunity — or give the required vaccines again if records cannot be found. Mention this when booking so the office can allow extra time.
Not fully — USCIS requires an in-person exam. Wellington applicants can, however, start with a virtual pre-consult so the in-person visit is short and well-prepared.
The base fee typically runs $200 to $500 around Wellington, plus $0 to $300 or more for vaccines, TB testing and record retrieval depending on your immunization history.
