If you live in Queens and file Form I-485 for a green card, you need a green card medical exam from a USCIS-designated civil surgeon. The results go on Form I-693. The civil surgeon signs the form, seals it in an envelope, and you send it with your I-485. Since December 2, 2024, USCIS generally wants both forms filed together, so timing matters.

How we ranked these civil surgeons

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

  • Call two or three offices in Queens and ask for the full price, including lab tests and any vaccines you may need. Fees vary by office.
  • Book your visit early. The civil surgeon must sign Form I-693 no more than 60 days before you file Form I-485, and blood results can take up to two weeks.
  • Bring your passport, vaccine records, a list of your current medicines and past chest X-ray results. Missing records can mean extra tests or another visit.
  • Ask whether the office can see you on a Saturday if you work weekdays. Some Queens clinics listed here have Saturday hours, so check before you book.

Civil surgeons in Queens: FAQs

What is a civil surgeon for?

A civil surgeon is a doctor USCIS designates to do the immigration medical exam for a green card. In Queens, the doctor reviews your health and vaccine history, does a physical exam and orders tests like the TB and syphilis blood tests. The results go on Form I-693, which you file with Form I-485.

How do I find a USCIS civil surgeon in Queens?

Start with the list on this page, then confirm the doctor with the USCIS Find a Civil Surgeon tool on uscis.gov. That tool is the official source. Call the office to ask about the total fee, wait times and what to bring. Being on a directory or a Google listing does not make a doctor a civil surgeon.

How long does the green card medical exam take in Queens?

Most visits take about one to two hours, including paperwork and the physical exam. Blood test results usually come back in a few days to two weeks. The civil surgeon can complete Form I-693 only after those results arrive. Ask the office when you book so you can plan around your I-485 filing date.

Who are the top rated doctors in Queens for immigration exams?

This page ranks Queens offices by Google rating and review count, so the top spots go to places like MS ALAM MEDICAL CARE PC in Jamaica and RiteCare Medical Office in Jamaica and Hollis. Ratings are only a starting point. Check the USCIS civil surgeon tool, the total fee and how soon you can get an appointment.
