Medical Dominican Republic

[Angela M. 2]

Hey Guys,

This is a Dominican Republic specific question!

My fiancee has no record of vaccinations whatsoever and I am pretty sure that he will need all the ones for his age group 27-49. I wanted to get an estimate of how much we would be paying that day for the vaccines.

If you guys remember how much you paid and what vaccines were administered write them below please :-). We are trying to see if it'll be cheaper to go to a regular doctor and have them administer the necessary vaccinations from the list or if it's not worth all that hassle and it's easier to just pay on the day of the medical. We are trying to save every cent possible with this crazy expensive process lol!

Thank you all,

Angela & Tony

I just checked the embassy site, because of the age range and time of year, it will be $361.00.

Yea, I think it depends on the person. Some people are required to have all of them, some aren't...for whatever reason. Just another crazy part of the crazy process

It's $350 dol because of influenza season. I don't think you can go somewhere else because they all work hand-in-hand. If he has vaccination records he can bring that with him and they will provide him with the necessary vaccines. Now if there are vaccinations that he already had, they will reimburse him.

Seems like 300s is the number!

If he gets the vaccines elsewhere before the medical then there will be no need to administer them again and pay the money at the consultorio (well at least he will get reimbursed). I guess now it's a matter of if the hassle is worth it or not (going to another doctor plus what they charge etc).

We will probably just let him do it at the consultorio and get it over with there but we will see.

I guess the question is what are the vaccines they need in order to come to the US. Also they say they'll reimburse you but we are talking about DR!! sad but true
