Best civil surgeons in Fairfax, VA for green card medical exams
- 10 civil surgeons ranked
- 4.8 average Google rating
- 5,363 reviews analyzed
If you live in or near Fairfax and file Form I-485, you need a green card medical exam from a USCIS-designated civil surgeon. The doctor completes Form I-693 and hands it to you in a sealed envelope. Do not open it. Since December 2, 2024, USCIS generally wants the I-693 filed together with the I-485, so timing matters.
This list ranks clinics in and around Fairfax using Google Maps data: star rating, review count and how often each one appears in Google results. It is a starting point, not an endorsement. Always confirm that a doctor is designated by USCIS before you book your civil surgeon visit.

How we ranked these civil surgeons
We collected civil surgeon and green card medical exam results from Google Maps around Fairfax 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 Fairfax
- Check the doctor on the USCIS Find a Civil Surgeon tool before you book. Only designated doctors can complete Form I-693 for your green card medical exam.
- Book early. The civil surgeon must sign your I-693 no more than 60 days before you file Form I-485, and lab results can take up to two weeks.
- Ask what the total fee covers when you call. Each office sets its own price, and the exam, lab tests and vaccines may be billed separately.
- Bring your passport, vaccine records, a list of current medicines and any past chest X-ray results. Leave the sealed envelope closed after your visit.
Civil surgeons in Fairfax: FAQs
What is a civil surgeon doctor?
A civil surgeon is a doctor that USCIS designates to perform immigration medical exams. In Fairfax and across the U.S., only these doctors can complete Form I-693, the report that goes with your I-485. Not every local clinic has a designated doctor on staff, so check the name with USCIS before you schedule.
How can I find a civil surgeon using USCIS' Find a Civil Surgeon tool?
Go to uscis.gov and open the Find a Civil Surgeon tool. Enter your Fairfax ZIP code, such as 22030, and set a search radius. The tool returns designated doctors near you. Compare that list with the clinics on this page, then call the office to confirm they still do I-693 exams and ask about wait times.
Do civil surgeons accept insurance?
USCIS does not set the price, so each civil surgeon sets their own fee. Total cost 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 the exam. Ask the Fairfax office about cost and payment before you book.
Do doctors get a green card easily?
Doctors follow the same green card paths as other applicants. A U.S. job offer may support an employment-based case, but the rules and paperwork are the same. Holding a medical license does not speed up the process. For questions about your own case, talk with an immigration lawyer.
