How we ranked these civil surgeons
We collected civil surgeon and green card medical exam results from Google Maps around Elizabeth 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 Elizabeth
- Check the doctor on the USCIS Find a Civil Surgeon tool before you book. Only doctors on that list can complete Form I-693 for you.
- 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 medicines and payment. Call ahead to ask what the whole visit will cost.
- Plan for lab results. Blood tests often take a few days to two weeks, so leave time before your filing date.
Civil surgeons in Elizabeth: FAQs
What is a civil surgeon for?
A civil surgeon is a doctor USCIS designates to do the immigration medical exam. In the Elizabeth area, that doctor reviews your health and vaccine history, orders the required tests, and completes Form I-693. USCIS uses the form as part of your green card case. Only a USCIS-designated doctor can sign it.
How can I find a civil surgeon on the USCIS website?
Go to uscis.gov and use the Find a Civil Surgeon tool. Type your ZIP code, such as an Elizabeth, NJ code, and set how far you will travel. The tool returns designated doctors near you. Compare that list with the clinics on this page, then call the office to confirm details and hours.
How much does a green card medical exam cost in Elizabeth, NJ?
USCIS does not set the price. Each civil surgeon sets their own fee. Around Elizabeth and Newark, the total commonly runs from about $200 to $500 or more, depending on lab tests and how many vaccines you need. Health insurance often does not cover it, so ask for the full price before you book.
How long do the results take?
Blood test results usually take a few days to two weeks. After that, the civil surgeon can finish Form I-693 and give it to you in a sealed envelope. Do not open the envelope. Plan for that wait so the signed form is ready when you file Form I-485.
