Any reviews for the new Vancouver clinic?

Hi everyone! I'm been reading up on the medical portion for the K-1 visa, and I noticed that Woking is now closed/will soon be closed. Has anyone had any experience with the new clinic at all? If so, can you please share some of your experiences so that we all know what to expect?

I posted this in the other thread, about Woking closing. Hope it helps.

I recently went through Dr. Cheema's office. I was very happy with the results.. I have seen his name on the MTL page for a few months now (ie: this isn't something new,) but there was no information on this forum about the office. They have a web site as well that's recently been added to the consulate document (at least for MTL.)

Some information/Tips:

1. Office is located about 120th (Scott Road,) and 72nd. You'll have to bus it, since there's not any skytrain nearby.

2. Test on one day, get the results *late* the next day. I did it on the Saturday, with the package ready on the Monday around 4pm. Keep this in mind if you're flying in and then getting medical.

3. Scheduling is a breeze. Email them at the address on the medical information sheet, or call and leave a message (answering service, not operator.)

4. I believe appts can be made Mon-Sat, but a Saturday appt means pick up results on the Monday.

5. The labs are located a few blocks up 120th. If they're busy, could take a while, but I went through both in about 30 min combined.

6. The Dr made me feel very comfortable, and is very professional. Goes over all the paperwork with you, then sends you for your blood and xray.

7. Received my package, plus x-ray results on disk. They said to bring the x-ray results to the meeting as well.

8. Also takes Debit, and I'm sure they probably take Cash and/or Visa/MC.

Over-all I was really happy, and it seemed a lot easier than what I'd read about Woking, outside of the time between testing and results. Hope this helps someone.
