{Saint Luke's Medical Center} Manila

[vacrimefighter 10]

Seems like everyone has a different experience in this process - this is our experience from this week.

Logistic/Facts

We book our room through Asia Travel Hotels – Bayview Park Hotel that is located directly across the street from the Embassy and Saint Luke Medical Center. We received a better discount with the breakfast buffet then we could get from the hotel.

Ladies – you cannot get your physical if your having your monthly menstrual cycle. They will turn you away, and tell you to come back.

This is a two-day {non-consecutive} day process for a K1/K2 Visa

The entire process of waiting in line and back to our hotel room on the first day took approximately 6 hours.

The entire process of waiting in line and back to our hotel room on the send day took approximately 1.5 hours.

Day 1 (Tuesday)

Physical

TB test {tuberculosis skin test}

We arrived at the Medical Center on Tuesday around 5:15 am and there were at least 35 people in front of us.

Medical Center rejected our passport/visa pictures because of our current hairstyle. {How ever you look in your passport/visa picture is how you better look when you arrive}

Medical Center scheduled our next appointment two days later to read the TB test results and they will give us our vaccinations.

Day 2 (Thursday)

Results of the TB test

Vaccinations
