Civil surgeon at military base?

[c_cta 0]

Hi all,

Just wondering if I can just do the exam or take my vaccination shot at the base for the AOS? Or it has to be the ones designated to do the immigration stuff?

Thanks!

They have to be authorized by the USCIS. If they are listed on this site: https://my.uscis.gov/findadoctor

Then it will be fine. Otherwise, you'll need to go to a doc listed on that site.

I think you should be able to, I didnt know about it when I did AOS, but later when I needed some info and called on post, they told me I could have done it with one of their doctors who knows how. Good luck

Yes you can have the exam and vaccinations at base medical. I recently had it done by a doctor on base for my AOS.

Do they need to be certified by the USCIS like the other poster said? Or I can literally just go to any doctor on base?

THanks so much!

No they don't need to be certified by USCIS. It says somewhere on the medical form instructions that any doctor at a military base can perform the exam. It took a couple of weeks to get mine all done since I needed several shots and tests done but better than paying $100s and they were very thorough. Just tell the receptionist at base why you need the appointment.
