How we ranked these civil surgeons
We collected civil surgeon and green card medical exam results from Google Maps around San Jose and removed government offices and unrelated businesses. Each listing gets a score based on its Google rating, adjusted for the number of reviews so a few 5-star reviews do not outrank hundreds of strong ones. Listings that also show up in Google's top results get a small boost. Paid placements are always labeled "Sponsored" and never change the ranked list. Read our editorial policy.
Designations can change. Before you book, confirm the doctor with the USCIS Find a Civil Surgeon tool.
Tips for booking your exam in San Jose
- Call two or three San Jose clinics and ask for the full price, including lab tests and any vaccines you may need.
- Ask when the doctor can sign Form I-693. USCIS requires a signature no more than 60 days before you file Form I-485.
- Bring your passport, vaccine records, a list of current medicines and any past chest X-ray results to the visit.
- Blood test results often take a few days to two weeks, so book your exam well before your filing deadline.
Civil surgeons in San Jose: FAQs
How do I find a civil surgeon for Form I-693 in San Jose?
Start with the USCIS Find a Civil Surgeon tool on uscis.gov to confirm a doctor is designated. Then compare San Jose clinics by rating, review count and location. Call ahead to ask about the total fee, how soon they can see you, and how long the form takes to complete.
How much is the I-693 medical exam in San Jose?
USCIS does not set the price. Each civil surgeon sets their own fee. Nationally, total cost commonly runs from about $200 to $500 or more, depending on the city, lab tests and how many vaccines you need. Health insurance often does not cover it, so ask for a full quote before you book.
What is a civil surgeon for?
A civil surgeon is a doctor USCIS designates to perform the immigration medical exam and complete Form I-693. They review your health and vaccine history, order the required tests, and give you the finished form in a sealed envelope. You send that envelope with your Form I-485 and must not open it.
What is the best hospital in San Jose for an immigration medical exam?
Big hospitals are not the only option. Many San Jose applicants use smaller clinics that focus on immigration exams, since they often book faster and handle Form I-693 regularly. Confirm the doctor is USCIS-designated, compare a few clinics, and pick one that answers your questions clearly.
