What is an Annual Physical?
An adult (and adolescent) physical is a checkup to make sure your development is on track and to provide preventive services, such as immunizations and preventive tests and/or cancer screening. The visit includes a comprehensive medical history and physical exam. The appointment also may consist of:
~ Hearing, vision, and other screening tests
~ Tb test for tuberculosis
~ Blood tests to screen for anemia, diabetes, cholesterol, kidney, liver function, thyroid,
prostate, cancer screening, and common sexually-transmitted diseases.
~ Immunizations based on your age (Tetanus, pertussis, flu, hepatitis, chickenpox,
shingles, pneumonia, meningitis, and other vaccines) are available on site
~ Pap smear (screen for cervical cancer)
~ Preventive tests can be ordered such as mammogram (screen for breast cancer), bone
density (screening for osteoporosis), colonoscopy (screen for colon cancer), digital rectal
exam (screen for prostate cancer), diabetic foot exam, and others
The annual physical is an ideal time to ask Dr. Kaw questions about other preventive care.

Immigration Physcial
US Citizenship and Immigration Services requires immigration physical as part of the process to become a lawful permanent resident. You will need to bring the following documents with you to the office:
● Government-issued photo ID (driver’s license or passport)
● Form I-693 (Report of Medical Examination)
● Any vaccination records
Dr. Kaw performs a comprehensive physical exam. He conducts a TB (tuberculosis) screening test, or recommends a chest X-ray to look for signs of tuberculosis. You may also need blood tests.
Most of these services are conveniently offered onsite at the office. US immigration laws also require you to be assessed for contagious diseases, including measles, mumps, and more. That is why it is essential to bring your immunization record.
Dr. Kaw completes your I-693 form once the physical and required lab tests are completed. The turnaround time is about 5 to 7 business days or less.
