The apartment Nadya will be staying at is apparently very close to one of the authorized clinics, but she (Olesya, aka RGF) doesn't know the name of it. The clinic is "on 3rd or 4th Tverskaya-Yamskaya street." Anyone know which clinic this is?

Embassy Medical Clinics

Ah cool, thanks! Y'know, I couldn't find that page fer the life of me, and now that you linked it, all of a sudden I can find it from the main site againl. lol. All I had was the PDF, and it doesn't have addresses.

Thanks!

That clinic is actually right down the street from the embassy. (And the big McDonald's at Pushkinskaya!)

I spent many a drunk night walking through there.... ah, memories!

If she has extra time, she could familiarize herself with that area and take that Metro stop plus a little walking to her interview the next day. (I believe the DHL office is somewhere around there too. Unsure of exactly how far it all is, but since they're Russian girls, it's not that far. My fat @$$ walked all the way to Red Square plenty of times, I'm sure they'll have no problems in their high heels.)

Yeah, I was told it's a single metro stop from the embassy, yet another bonus.

She'll have a lot of time on her hands. Day 1 arriving, day 2 medical exam, day 3 picking up medical exam, day 4 interview, day 5 returning in the afternoon. I'm sure she'll play the tourist a lot of the time.

You are welcome my friend!

Don't forget to have her fit "pay for DHL airbill" somewhere in there. This was something that my then fiancee was almost unable to do due to time constraints.

She'll have to go to the DHL office to pick it up. Shouldn't be a problem, just remind her to do it! (And since she likes to do things like I do.... at the very last minute!.... she could do it in the afternoon of day 2 or morning of day 3.)

The consulate won't interview her without the airbill, will they?

Nope. Gotta have that. It's a quick stop into the DHL office. Shouldn't take her too long, but beware, they close after normal "business" hours so she'll have to plan on going at a certain time.
