Question About Medical Exam

[Lucy and David 0]

Apologies if there is an answer to this elsewhere in forums but I promise you I have searched through first but could not see anything.

My medical test is booked for the 11th January 2013 in London, I have never had a medical before so I have no idea what exactly happens other than that they are going to take my blood, do a chest x-ray and discuss my vaccinations/medical history. How long approximately does the medical take (I have to book train tickets) and will it involve stripping off (so I know to wear my best undies) ??

I would really appreciate it if someone could get back to me on this, I'll feel much happier going prepared to my medical than going into the unknown

My husband didn;t have his medical in London, but I know the day he had it done he spent the good portion of 3 or 4 hours there by the time they got the results of the blood work and xrays. Good idea on the undies part

Haha! Seriously don't worry about it.. I wasn't happy about doing this, but it was fast and there was much more time just waiting around.? I wold plan to be there a good 3-5 hours.

Another note to self. Start reading the UK forum. It's full of London specific tips and tricks. There is a pinned thread with page after page people telling their experience at the medical. It's years old so jump in around 2011-2012. There's a pinned thread for K1s with everything you might have questions about after NOA2.
