How we ranked these civil surgeons

We collected civil surgeon and green card medical exam results from Google Maps around Miami 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 Miami

  • Check the doctor on the USCIS Find a Civil Surgeon tool before you book. Only designated doctors can complete Form I-693.
  • Book early. The civil surgeon must sign your I-693 no more than 60 days before you file Form I-485.
  • Bring your passport, vaccine records, a list of current medicines, past chest X-ray results and payment to the visit.
  • Ask about the total fee before the visit, including lab tests and any vaccines. Each Miami clinic sets its own price.

Civil surgeons in Miami: FAQs

What is a civil surgeon for?

A civil surgeon is a doctor USCIS designates to perform the immigration medical exam. In Miami, you book one to complete Form I-693, which covers your health history, physical exam, tuberculosis test, some blood and urine tests, and vaccines. USCIS uses the form to check that you are not inadmissible on health grounds. The doctor gives you the finished form in a sealed envelope.

How much does a green card medical exam cost in Miami?

USCIS does not set the price. Each civil surgeon sets their own fee, and total cost commonly runs from about $200 to $500 or more. The final amount depends on the city, the lab tests you need and how many vaccines you are missing. Health insurance often does not cover it, so ask for the full price in writing before you book.

What should I bring to my immigration medical exam in Miami?

Bring a government photo ID such as your passport, your vaccination records, a list of medicines you take, past chest X-ray results if you have them, and payment. Some Miami clinics take walk-ins and some are open Saturday, but call first. Blood test results usually take a few days to two weeks before the civil surgeon can sign the form.

What are the major hospitals in Miami?

Miami has several large hospital systems, but a hospital is not automatically a USCIS-designated civil surgeon. Many green card applicants in Miami use smaller clinics and private practices for the exam instead. Wherever you go, check the doctor or clinic on the USCIS Find a Civil Surgeon tool first, and confirm the total fee before you book.
