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.

Finding the right civil surgeon near Kennesaw

USCIS requires that your medical exam be performed by a designated civil surgeon — not just any licensed physician in Georgia. Before booking anywhere in Cobb County, verify the designation — the Georgia civil surgeon directory is checked against USCIS records.

Compare price and language

Pricing near Kennesaw tracks the wider Georgia norm of $200–$500 for the exam itself, before any vaccines or testing. If English is not your first language, note that offices serving Cobb County frequently offer Spanish, Vietnamese, Korean and Amharic. Because Kennesaw is a small city, many applicants book with a civil surgeon in nearby Acworth or Woodstock.

Start online if you are not near a doctor

If the nearest civil surgeon to Kennesaw 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.
