Winnipeg Medical

So, I just had my medical exam today...

My appointment was for 1pm, I arrived @ 12:45. It was in the Manitoba Clinic on Sherbrook.

I had to give the nurse my case number, which was on my Interview letter which I just received TODAY. I'm assuming they didn't need the actual letter to confirm my interview date since she only asked for the case number.

So, anyway, the nurse gave me a little form to go pay for the exam. It was outside the room to the right. I paid and went back into the waiting room. The nurse looked over some of my medical records, which were still there since it's the same clinic my pediatrician is located. She gave some more forms and told me to take those and my passport to the X-Ray room which was outside of the current room to the left.

The X-Ray room looked like I walked into the 70's. So yeah, that was paper gown # 1. Took the X-Ray, waited, then the nurse said I was done.

I headed back to Dr. Drexler's office and the nurse asked for my 3 pictures and told me to wait in the examination room and strip down and put paper gown #2. Waited a few minutes. Dr. Drexler came in and went over the Vaccination Records, and wrote down what I had. I didn't need any shots. He then asked a whole bunch of questions... Do I smoke? Do I have any heart problems? Do I have leprosy? and so on. He then took my height, weight, looked in my ears and mouth, took my blood pressure, listened to my breathing, simple breast examination, felt my stomach, quick peek 'down there' ( I guess to make sure I'm really a female) =) and that was that. He said he was done, and I just needed to get bloodwork done.

So the nurse gave me some more papers and sent me to the lab in the basement to get my blood drawn. I was told I'd get a phone call as to when I can pick up the results. Everything took about an hour and 15mins.

So yes. Just wanted to give a little overview of what I had to do @ my medical. =)

I also got the interview date I requested. July 19th in Vancouver! =)

Just had my medical done at Dr. Drexler's office last week, too. Pretty much the same. Going back tomorrow to pick up my results. When I was there the nurse said they didn't do many and I had the lady in the lab confused. Good luck at your interview.

oooh... another Winnipegger! =)

So it takes a bit over a week for them to get the results back, huh?

Best of luck at your interview as well!

Well, not really a Winnipeger, lol, I'm not much of a Pegger fan. A fellow Manitobian. Took 6 working days for the results. Nurse said between 3-5 days. I called at day 5 and the nurse said she was trying to track down the radiologist to sign off on his report. You know, those x-rays are so important that we have to lug them to MTL just so they won't look at them.

A fellow Manitoban! =) Well, I'm not much of a 'Pegger fan either. If it weren't for my American Significant Other, I wouldn't be in Winnipeg still, that's for sure.

So, your interview is in MTL? I have my K-1 in Vancouver.
