Visa medical - Australia | Treatments & Procedures

We're approved by the Australian Government Department of Immigration and Border Protection to provide visa medical and radiological (X-ray) examinations for people planning to visit or live in Australia. Visa medicals, X-rays and blood tests can all be arranged and performed at the same appointment.

All our centres are eMedical clinics, which means we can process your health examination online and provide a quicker visa turn-around than traditionally-handled paper copies.

You will generally need to have a medical examination if you're planning to live permanently in Australia.

You may need to have a health assessment if you're applying for a temporary visa. This is dependent on certain criteria including the type of visa you want, the amount of time you're planning to stay in Australia, your intended activities during your stay, and if you have 'significant' medical conditions.

The Australian Government has a list of approved physicians who can carry out the visa medical assessments. We have approved doctors at selected Spire hospitals.

Our patients are at the heart of what we do and we want you to be in control of your care. To us, that means you can choose the consultant you want to see, and when you want. They'll be with you every step of the way.

All of our consultants are of the highest calibre and benefit from working in our modern, well-equipped hospitals.

Our consultants have high standards to meet, often holding specialist NHS posts and delivering expertise in complex sub-specialty surgeries. Many of our consultants have international reputations for their research in their specialised field.

You will have a formal consultation with a healthcare professional. During this time you will be able to explain your medical history, symptoms and raise any concerns that you might have.

We will also discuss with you whether any further diagnostic tests, such as scans or blood tests, are needed. Any additional costs will be discussed before further tests are carried out.

We've tried to make your experience with us as easy and relaxed as possible.

For more information on visiting hours, our food, what to pack if you're staying with us, parking and all those other important practicalities, please visit our patient information pages.

Our dedicated team will also give you tailored advice to follow in the run up to your visit.

We understand that having tests can potentially be a time of anxiety and worry. Our experienced and caring medical staff will be there for you, holding your hand, every step of the way.

You may have a blood test as part of the exam and you may also be required to provide a urine sample. Additional blood or urine tests may be required, depending on your intended activities in Australia or if we detect abnormal findings during the exam. These tests will incur an extra fee.

A fixed price for this treatment may be available on enquiry and following an initial consultation.

We are committed to delivering excellent individual care and customer service across our network of hospitals, clinics and specialist care centres around the UK. Our dedicated and highly trained team aim to achieve consistently excellent results. For us it's more than just treating patients, it's about looking after people.
