How we ranked these civil surgeons
We collected civil surgeon and green card medical exam results from Google Maps around Tacoma 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 Tacoma
- Check the doctor on the USCIS Find a Civil Surgeon tool before you book. Only designated doctors can sign Form I-693 for your green card medical exam.
- Ask what the total fee covers. Each civil surgeon sets their own price, and lab tests or extra vaccines can add to the bill.
- Bring your passport, vaccine records, a list of current medicines, and any past chest X-ray results to the appointment.
- Book early. Blood test results can take a few days to two weeks, and the civil surgeon must sign Form I-693 no more than 60 days before you file Form I-485.
Civil surgeons in Tacoma: FAQs
Can Filipino doctors practice in the US?
In general, yes. A doctor trained in the Philippines can practice in the U.S. after meeting state licensing rules, which usually include exams and residency training. For immigration exams, the key point is different: the doctor must be designated by USCIS as a civil surgeon. Ask the Tacoma area office directly about your language needs, and confirm designation on the USCIS tool first.
What is the safest part of Tacoma to live in?
We do not rank Tacoma neighborhoods, and safety can differ from block to block. For help, check local crime maps and talk to people who live in the area you are considering. Visit at different times of day if you can. Your choice of civil surgeon for the green card medical exam does not depend on where you live, so you can book anywhere that fits.
What is the best healthcare system in Washington State?
There is no single answer. It depends on your insurance, your doctors and where you live. For a green card medical exam, the health system brand matters less than the doctor's USCIS designation. Look for a civil surgeon near Tacoma who is designated, explains the fee up front, and can finish Form I-693 before your filing date.
Who is the highest ranked doctor?
On this page, Simply Health DP3 in Federal Way has the top score, with a 5.0 rating from 173 Google reviews. Our ranking weighs rating and review count, plus how often a clinic shows up in Google results. A high rating does not confirm USCIS designation, so check the doctor on the USCIS Find a Civil Surgeon tool before you book.
