Is anyone who went through medical exam here in USA can tell me what does it include? what kind of test etc?

[cazzers 83]

physical body check, urine test, tb skin test, blood tests and that's about it, if I remember correctly

Physical, blood test, TB skin test (possible chest x-ray, depending on if there is a reaction) and then any required vaccinations.

Urine test U have to take off clothes too?

No urine test unless they suspect you're not on the level about controlled substances, I believe. I didn't have it done, but then again I have a very trustworthy face and beautiful accent.

Hope its gonna be just blood test.im not comfortable with undressing etc

[Erica & L 50]

Urine test is only if you answer yes to any prior substance abuse or if they for some reason suspected you were under the influence at the time of the medical.

I didn't have to undress at all for my physical, but I think most people have. Not sure why my civil surgeon didn't require it, but eh, not complaining.

Blood can show if u use drugs,i believe urine is not neccesary

Blood test, checked vaccine records and apply what was missing, TB skin test - which mine was negative- no undressing at all. Checked eyes, ears, nose, mouth, lungs, abdomen, leg reflexes. No urine test for me. I had to answer a comprehensive sheet about medical history, surgeries, pregnancies and LMP date. That was it, very easy.

There was nothing in the forms I filled that mentioned anything about genitals, or even the dr mentioned anything or asked about anything pertaining them. There was not a gynecological examination. It was like any other regular physical exam. I asked what do they test with blood sample and they say it is for syphilis. In the copy of signed I-693 they gave me it confirmed the results being negative for syphilis.

Actually the urine test was to see if I were pregnant (the doctor didn't believe me when i told him I am not). And yes, I had to undress.

You can find a female doctor if you are worried about undressing.
