The entire thing takes about a day po. Pero kung may finding ka, you'll be asked to come the next day. Also, depende din kung ano findings, what other medical workup may be asked by the physician. Mabait yung physician dun. Dun pa lang, she'll advise you na of any possible additional lab workup, if any. Also, if you have any respiratory problem, gusto nila dalhin mo previous xrays.
Punta ka dun early po. I remember 6:30 AM pumila nako. Get a light breakfast, no coffee or sweets para walang sugar load ang urine mo, or your blood. They don't tell you this, but suggest ko lang to do water therapy 24 hours before ka magpa medical. Para clear yung urine and "less concentrated" .
Goodluck!

i am a bit confused with my 457 visa application. Lodged on 05 Feb 2016, then CO emailed me on 08 Feb regarding health examination requirement with the referral letter.
upon application online i included the details of my existing health examination done in Sept 2015 (for sc600 visa)
on my ImmiAccount when I click on VIEW HEALTH ASSESSMENT,
it says "Health clearance provided – no action required
All health examinations required for the specified visa subclass have been finalised. Processing of this person's visa application can now continue. This will not occur until a case officer investigates the case in line with published processing times for the visa that has been applied for. Do not contact the department about health examinations in the meantime."
I sent an email inquiry to DIBP 3x, if I can reuse my existing health exams or if i need to repeat it, still CO haven't responded for more than 2 weeks.
