Hi Guys. My first post on here. Very Grateful for all the info that everyone has shared on here!

We don't have our K1 interview date just yet, but our NOA2 / NVC letter is done and package is in the US Embassy in Manila.

My fiance lives in Makati and she is planning to get her Advance Medical Exam at ST LUKES on Monday or Tuesday June 13/14 or sometime that week. She would feel more comfortable if she could have a companion that day, who is also going to the exam, to meet there ahead of time. Perhaps if there is another VJ member who is also going to have their medical exam that day - they can meet up.

If anyone is interested please let me know and you can exchange emails/contact info with her.

Thanks!

Hi I'm also planning to have my medical exam soon, probably next week too if it doesn't rain too much. (Its hard to be stuck in the Manila area when its pouring! :blink: )

Do you know if she'll be going in the morning or afternoon? Coz I heard its better after lunch since there are lesser people.

Hi Guys. My first post on here. Very Grateful for all the info that everyone has shared on here!

We don't have our K1 interview date just yet, but our NOA2 / NVC letter is done and package is in the US Embassy in Manila.

My fiance lives in Makati and she is planning to get her Advance Medical Exam at ST LUKES on Monday or Tuesday June 13/14 or sometime that week. She would feel more comfortable if she could have a companion that day, who is also going to the exam, to meet there ahead of time. Perhaps if there is another VJ member who is also going to have their medical exam that day - they can meet up.

If anyone is interested please let me know and you can exchange emails/contact info with her.

Thanks!

Yup...the afternoon is best. :thumbs:

I don't understand why those zombies fall in line at St. Lukes at four o'clock in the morning! :huh:

It's much better to sleep in, have a leisurely breakfast, enjoy a second cup of coffee, then wander over to St. Lukes around lunch time. You will complete the first day of your medical shortly after the zombies stagger out of St. Lukes. :yes:

So true... And after your (relatively painless) medical, wander over to Hizon's Bakeshop next door for the best ensaymadas on the planet. Old time Manileños will agree--they have been a pastry institution since 1946. :P

Bakeries are one of my favorite places. I don't know what an ensaymada is, but I would love to try one. :D
