Serving West County & Chesterfield
Immigration Medical Exam (I-693) in Chesterfield, MO
West County applicants complete the USCIS Form I-693 medical exam with a designated civil surgeon about twenty-five minutes east on I-64.
A West County run down Highway 40
Chesterfield sits at the far western end of the area we serve, which changes one practical thing: the drive to either St. Louis County health center is roughly as long as the drive to us. That makes arriving fully prepared — records, testing, immunizations — worth more here than almost anywhere else, because it is what turns two trips into one.
What one appointment covers
History, the focused USCIS examination, immunization review and catch-up doses, and on-site tuberculosis, syphilis and gonorrhea testing — 2 to 6 hours in total. Costs and turnaround: fees and timeline. Age-banded dose list: vaccine requirements.
What the federal designation buys you
A form completed by an undesignated doctor is rejected, usually months later. Dr. Padda is a DHS-designated civil surgeon, CSID 111051, board-certified by five American specialty boards; the sealed envelope is valid at any USCIS office in the country.
Getting here from Chesterfield
4477 Woodson Rd, Suite 102 is about twenty-five minutes east on I-64/Highway 40, directly beside Lambert Airport, with easy parking.
Who travels in from West County
Applicants from Chesterfield Valley, Wildwood and Town & Country — and, where the citizenship test is the obstacle, families arranging an N-648 evaluation in their own language.
N-648 evaluations
A medical or mental-health condition that prevents an applicant passing the English and civics test may support an N-648 disability waiver. It is a separate evaluation from the I-693 and is performed in house.
Catching up on doses from West County
Missing immunizations are the usual reason a form is not sealed at the first visit. Doses can be given during your exam, which from Chesterfield is often the more sensible option — the county’s public clinics are no closer to you than we are.

Frequently asked questions
From Chesterfield, is it faster to get vaccines at the county or at my exam?
Almost always at your exam. Chesterfield is the farthest of the Missouri communities we serve, and the drive to either county health center is comparable to the drive here — so combining the doses with the examination saves a whole trip.
Can I fill out any of the form before I arrive?
Yes, and it shortens the visit. Part 1 is the applicant’s own section and can be completed online in advance. Start here: complete Form I-693 Part 1 online.
Will a medical condition make me a public charge?
Almost certainly not in the way applicants fear — the public-charge test is not a health test, and the myth causes real harm. Addressed here: does a medical condition make you a public charge.
How long should I set aside for the appointment?
Two to six hours. The range is wide because it depends on how much testing and how many vaccines you turn out to need. Timeline detail: fees and timeline.
