One day medical at St. Lukes

[davenjanet 22]

Janet had me wake her up at 3:00AM to get to St. Lukes bright and early. Even then she was only number 12 in line. She whipped through the procedures and they let her leave for lunch, telling her to return at 1:30. We talked over lunch and it sounded like she had done almost everything and she said they told her she might have her vaccinations after lunch. "No way," I told her. "That is day two." Sure enough when we talked after the day was over, she returned, had her vaccinations, got her CD and was all done.

Is the one day medical common, a new procedure, or did they take one look at Janet and decide "this girl looks healthy - push her through?"

My wife (then fiancée) did her medical all in one day as well, vaccinations in the afternoon and was out of there with her CD and 3025.

I went to SLEC at 3 am too.. I am the 5th person to arrive.. It payed off since i finished at 3pm that day.. so it took me 1 day and the girl beside me too took her 1 day..we bought were happy..

It all depends on what time you had your x-ray taken. Sorry guys, it is not luck.. According to the rad-tech that I spoke with when my child and I had our medical at SLEC last July 3-5, X-rays that were taken after their cut-off time (10am/11am) will be asked to return on the following day because the x-ray films will be usually read by two doctors.

I had my xray at 9 am.. and then they told us to be back by 1pm for the result...

So it could be said the early bird gets the one day medical...

My fiancée was there at 3am and didn't get 1 day medical. She was told they do one day medical if your interview is very close.

Janet's interview was 8 days later (happening right now in fact). So it was not very close.

Perhaps this whole thing is based on being early and random luck.
