Try to search for a doctor in your area and call each one to see which one seems the "less" expensive. Before you go to a civil surgeon, always make sure that doctor still works with USCIS.

Hopefully you can find a good doctor that does not charge an arm and leg just for a signature!

We are at same stage and need to find one that will process and bill our BCBSIL PPO. There is many to choose from the locator on USCIS. I called one Doctor this morning and said cash and dont submit insurance. The cost.....Hold on to your hat.............$600plus! We are in Chicago suburbs.

This seems its going to be a hassle. I read some threads on here. Search Civil surgeons cost and Chicago. They will tell you the high cost for medical exam and blood work, We dont need that because its been less than a year. VJ ers should be 30-70 dollars for tetanus or missing shots and transcription. Just got in argument with a scammer Doctor! I will keep calling and pushing to find one and will put it up on here.

Dr. Ann Trauscht, Advocate Occupational Health – Lake Zurich Center<br style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 17.766666412353516px;">350 Surryse Road, Suite 110, Lake Zurich, IL 60047<br style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 17.766666412353516px;">(847) 842-7565 I called a handful of Doctors and got the run around. This one knew exactly what was needed and says they do them often. I did get the examination story about needed even though done in past year. They take BCBSIL PPO insurance. Quoted costs is Exam $178, a test $42, TB vax $33 plus any other needed vax. I will try to fight the exam issue but with insurance should be minimal and just need to get this done. My thoughts on whole issue is some areas and doctors dont se this often. Even though the Doctors instructions is clear of what is needed many may do everything and test for everything to cover their butt, squeeze as much out of insurance and every nickle from patient. There is nothing "civil" by any definition on this civil doctors requirement! Our appointment is later this month and we will report on here our experience. Lake Zurich is a far northwest suburb of Chicago.

A designated civil surgeon is only needed for immigration purposes for the I-693. The kids can get a school physical from any doctor you wish.
