Medical examination problem

edited August 2017 in Working and skilled visas
Hi everyone, I am about to lodge my EOI with 75 points, now I have got a problem. My son has autism, he is 3 years old and just speaks a few words and doesnt form sentences. Now wondering how are medicals conducted here in the philippines for toddlers, im from cebu btw. Will they ask for the child to converse with them or ask to obey commands? If i hide it from the medical officer would they find out anyway? Anybody with experience of having medical examination for the visa on their kids please advice me.

Thank you

    Hi @Melis0315 i have a 3 yr old during medicals but no autism and we had ours at St Lukes. Per experience, since there are diff doctors for boys and girls, my son was asked to go in with my husband. The child was asked a few questions by the doctor (name, age, asked to identify a few colors, and how he was feeling, etc) while medical history was asked from my husband (history of asthma, if hospitalized before, etc). I cannot really say if they are able to tell what a child has but i'm not sure also if it's ok to lie if they ever asked the parent/s about any medical condition. I would say don't present info if not asked? especially if hindi naman formally diagnosed as autistic. but if tinanong, safer to answer honestly cguru. just my POV

    @snmgil thank you so much for the info and sharing your experiences at st lukes. Our son is already diagnosed with autism. We requested an assessment report from his developmental pedia in case the panel dr will ask for his medical history about his developmental delay,since our son is already 8 years old maybe the panel dr can recognized our son has speech delay.baka tanungin din sya ng mga question bakit di sya sumasagot, nakakasagot naman sya pero minsan phrases lang hirap pa sya sa conversation.
