Medical body inspection

[Shiobhan 235]

Is there any truth to the rumor that at the medical one has to strip butt naked and photos taken if theres tattoos

I can understand the psysical, blood tests and chest xrays but????? wow, a friend tells me they did make her strip in

Tijuana, which was her 2nd medical the one in the USA there was no stripping, anyways she was approved.I wondered if this

happens only in some countries.

It's a medical exam, not a body inspection as if you had concealed weapons on you.

Depends on the country how they do the medical. I'd suggest performing a search on here(there's a search field in the upper right corner) and type in medical and the country you are going through.

Personal experience is a blood test, xray of chest, weight, height, eye sight, answering a few questions and out the door again. Only had to roll up sleeve and that was about the stripping done at that medical.

EDIT: Your status says Cr1/IR1. That means you won't have a second medical in the US.
