Medical in Kolkata Apollo Gleneagles

[Payal Sharma 0]

Hello Everyone,

I am going to share my experiences regarding first day of Medical on November 6 ( For US Visa (CR1 category) in Apollo Gleneagles. It is in 58 canal circular road, kolkata - 54. When I have reached the main building then I came to know from the reception, that I have to visit the Day care building (which is in the same compound of Apollo) where I have to meet one adviser ( who is associated with the doctors) and who is taking care of the US Spouse Visa Medical as well. I have reached there at 10:30am since I have to go from Durgapur via car and it is almost 3.5 hours so I reached there at 10:30 am as my appointment is from 11:00am. But that guy came at 11:30am and my proceedings started at 11:45am. You need to wait for long otherwise the staffs are very co-operative and courteous from the beginning. Here in lies the details of testing:

1. Filled up the form.

2. Paid the fees (Rs.1450) for the testing of VDRL (blood Test only) and Chest x-ray. Depends on the age as my age is 30 years.

3. Returned to the same guy and he advised me to take the blood test and chest x-ray.

4. Completed the blood test and chest x-ray.

5. Attended the Pharmacy on the same day care building and purchased 3 vaccines depends on my age again and purchased syringes, alcohol swaps and round adhesive and one plastic cover gloves. You need to buy all these things and total costs Rs.1356/-.

6. Attended the nurse's room and came to know that I have to pay for the Pushing of injections as well.

7. Paid the money ( for 3 injections pushing costs Rs.180)

8. Pushing done.

9. Returned to the same guy and he kept my file for future reference.

10. Got the date for November 9 at 11:00am for final check-up and reports.

P.s. Hope this helps but please keep one thing in mind, while Chest X - ray keep your gold/ silver chain, mangal sutra in home otherwise earings and bangles are fine. During X-ray take a deep breath and hold so that you will get a clean and clear X-Ray

I will keep you updated when the Nov.9 medical will be done.

Hello Everyone!

Sorry for the late reply. Finally got the Medical reports on November 9. I had to wait long for the final physical check up and then get the reports after 1 hour. Reports are fine and now waiting for the Final D-Day ! Reports and Chest X-ray are properly sealed and it is said that Chest X-ray is important for POE. But from security perspective please carry it with yourself during interview time. Other wise everything went well.
