Hi everyone.
Our medicals have now been requested, It's taken agent two bloody weeks to inform us!
So that now leaves us three weeks to get these done and back to OZ: :scared:
To save time and hassle in the morning (when booking both Ex-ray and medicals) Can anyone tell me if it matters which order, we get them done in ?
E. g ex-ray needs to be done before medical but happy

It doesn't matter. The panel doctor will need the x-rays, they are given to you in a sealed envelope to take to the doctors with you, but you could always drop them in after your meds if they have been done already.

This is not uncommon.

If you need to you could contact your CO and ask for an extension.

We had our medicals done first then our x-rays (on the same day), both done in different locations.

It then took about 3 weeks before all the results (bloods, x-ray's) were ready to sent to Sydney.

If you have the chance try and do the x-rays first, so the doc can see them when you see him / her.............but it's not a major issue if you can't.

Good luck

Pam

yes you need to do ex-rays before medical, Because you have to give them
to the Doctor.

Hi Lor, we had our meds on the saturday and the x-rays on the Monday, just dropped the x-rays in at the panel doctor, no problem, you have to wait for blood results to come back anyway so doing it this way doesnt delay things. I know I was totally panicing about doing this the wrong way round, but panel doctor wasn't concerned at all, everything got processed and we have our visas, so if it suits you go for it.
