Medical Exam - Correspondence from the actual Hyderabad Physician

[hobokenworkingman 4]

Hi India VJers,

I had written to Dr. Raj Kumar Songa about vaccination requirements that my wife might need (as she does not have any of her records). Here is the email chain (read bottom to top to start). Basically for ~ 5k, she would only need 2-3 vaccinations (she is 28). Hope this helps anyone in a simlar situation.

Most people in her age group usually do not have vaccination records and usually require only 'age-appropriate vaccines' which may be just 2 or 3 only and not the whole list of vaccines you see on the website. That list is a comprehensive list for all age-groups put together.

Regards,

Dr Raj Kumar

Dear Dr. Songa,

I was actually referring to those that don't have any vaccinvation record s. Unfortunately my wife got vaccinated when she was a child, but those records are missing which means that she'll probably have to get the vaccinations done again. Can you kindly confirm ? Thanks

Hello Mr Iyer,

I presume you are referring to Chennai Apollo. I'm here at the Hyderabad Panel. The vaccinations usually cost about 3000. The price mentioned on the website is for younger age groups without vaccination records.

Regards,

Dr Raj Kumar

Dear Dr. Songa,

My wife, who will be having her visa interview soon, does not have her vaccination records. Can she obtain the necessary vaccinations the same day from the Appollo Clinic when she has her medical exam for her visa interview? I believe the fees are an additional Rs. 9000. Can you please confirm. Thank you very much. Kind Regards,
