I had mine done there, with Dr Million. If I wasnt at an internet cafe in Bangkok and paying Baht/minute, I'd tell you a lot more But I've posted about it a lot, so you could do a search. Basically though, it was fine. He wouldnt give you the forms though, these went straight to DIMIA, there was no problem with this.

Cheers
Michelle

Hi,

We had our meds done on 16th July with Dr Million, really funny guy. If your anyways nervous he will put you at ease or at least make you laugh!
Nothing to worry about, you just show up do a urine sample, you take it up to the doc, he checks sugar levels . Once that is done he goes through your form and discusses anything that you have put down. You then get undressed (to underwear) where he does your reflexes, takes your BP and thats about it. Oh yes, he also does your height and weight. If anyone is asthmatic you also have to do a peak flow. It then a case of going downstairs to the radiologist to take a chest xray. All done in under an hour. He tells you unless there is something wrong with chest xray or bloods you won't hear from him again and he will send them onto Adelaide. We are frontloading so did not have a ref number for app, but he assures you that loads of people front load and there won't be a problem, so just hoping they get there now.
Hope it goes ok
