Medical In NZ cost

[G0ds1ay3r 30]

I was just wondering how much the medical stuff costs in New Zealand.

I can either go to Christchurch before my interview OR I can go to Auckland on the day of my interview (according to the consulate)

I remember in 2005 my medical was done in Christchurch and consisted of a bunch of questions, a X-Ray but no blood samples or any shots as I was uptodate (not anymore though) it also costed next to nothing but I have heard it can cost an awful lot of money now days.

Any members done the med in Christchurch or Auckland in the last couple years can you please let me know the costs and procedures.

Thanks

Scott

I did my medical in Auckland in April of 2010. It was just a basic medical, blood test and chest x-rays, and I had to get an updated Tetanus shot. I can't remember the exact cost, but I want to say in total it was around $150-$160, but it was higher because of the shot.

I think the updated tetanus is the only shot I need too.

I looked online and I booked in with City med in Auckland - despite living in Christchurch, I was precious and want a female doctor!

It's $333 for the doctor, nurse, x-ray and blood tests.

Good to know about the embassy saying it's ok to have on the same day. I'm hoping that I can get it done the same trip to Auckland that I've booked the medical for early next month. Fingers crossed!
