Medical Today - "Come Back Next Week for Vaccinations"!!

[MactanLove 0]

So, I flew to Manila yesterday to have my medical today. I got done with medical but they told me that I need to come back NEXT week for vaccinations!! They said that because my interview isn't until early Feb, they need to make room for people with earlier interviews! I tried to explain I took the whole week off from work to get my medical done this week, but they won't listen. Anyone ever hear of this? I always hear people getting everything done in two days. Any suggestions?? URGH!

That's a first for me.

I'd go back and try some more. They should show a little consideration since you have to fly there.

Thanks. I agree. I think I will try again tomorrow and Friday. It doesn't hurt to ask. I've never heard of this happening to anyone before.

As I said that's a first for me. My wife and anak had their interviews 1 1/2 months before their interview without any problems.

Get there early as you can and "cry a lot". If your're from Cebu or Visaya let them know of your flight problems.
