Hello,

 

I know the medical requirements is asking for old chest xray and immunization records.

 

But what if you don't have a chest xray and don't know about immunization records prior to the medical? Will st. Lukes decline appointment if I don't show these?

They say bring old chest x-rays but even if you had them, they would still take new ones and only go by their own x-rays (for better or worse).  Old chest x-rays are irrelevant at SLEC.

 

One should bring proof of COVID vax.  "Fully vaccinated", no booster required.

 

All other vaccinations, bring any records if you have them as it could possibly save a few shots.  But if you don't have records it's no problem.  They will give whatever missing vaccinations are required included in the cost of the physical.

They will still redo x-rays even if you bring your old ones. If you don't bring your immunization paperwork then you will just get more shots there.

SLEC sends the results directly to USEM.  The applicant may get a personal copy of the vaccination worksheet after the exam.
