You can choose USCIS appointed doctors on the USCIS website. The doctors can decide how much they want to charge for the exam, so every doctor will be different. I have heard prices from $100-$500. I suggest you call different doctors and ask what the fee is. It typically takes about a week for results as they need to submit the syphilis and gonnorhea tests to a lab and then around a week later they need to see your arm because of the tuberculosis skin test to see if your skin reacted or not. 

Insurance typically does not cover the exam.

Thank you, I already know that from the website,  I just needed some info or recommendation from folks who went in New York City.

 

FYI the skin test is no longer acceptable for TB as of 10/01/2018 only blood tests are used for the form.

If you only want to pay for work permit, it is 410.00.

Oh that’s good to know! I had my medical on 9/26, so I guess I just got away with doing the skin test still. 

 

If anybody in Southern California is looking for the cheapest doctor in the area, there is one in LA that does it for $120.
