PHYSICAL EVALUATIONS
MIMPC Specializes in Medical Exams
Dr. Sargeant and her associates at Monrovia Internal Medicine & Primary Care provide a wide range of medical health evaluations. MIMPC is conveniently located in Duarte, CA just a few minutes east of Pasadena.
Below is a list of the health evaluations Dr. Sargeant provides to the men, women & children of Los Angeles County.
USCIS Immigration Medical Exams
Thinking about citizenship? Then you’ll need a medical examination performed by a Certified Civil Surgeon. That’s where we come in!
The exam entails a review of your medical history, a full physical exam, vaccinations if needed, a blood and urine test, and a skin test to check for tuberculosis. When your evaluation is complete, both you and your doctor will sign a form called the i- 693. If you are using an interpreter, they’ll need to sign the form, too. Your form will be given to you in a sealed envelope to give to your lawyer or USCIS immigration official.
How long will it take? Well, that’s up to you, really. But, in most cases, we can have that sealed envelope in your hands as quickly as 48 to 72 hours.
DOT Commercial Driver Exams
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) now requires all commercial drivers who assume safety-sensitive duties such as long haulers, paramedics, bus drivers and the like to undergo a medical evaluation by an FMCSA Certified medical evaluator. That’s where we come in. Check us out! Our National Registry # is 3819590903. Then make your own appointment for a DOT/Commercial Driver exam. Bring with you any medical records that may be relevant to your exam, especially anything that pertains to vision problems, sleep apnea, lung problems, seizures, heart conditions, back conditions, diabetes and hypertension.
Disability Evaluations
If you’ve been injured on your job or suffer from progressive or chronic physical problems that make it difficult for you to continue working, then you may need to be assessed for disability status. But, frankly, this is not easy if you don’t have a doctor who is experienced in these assessments and able to help you gather pertinent information to support your case. Make an appointment with us now to discuss and examine your medical history. We have experience in assessing disability patients for the state of California for over five years and can inform you honestly and candidly about your particular situation.
Pre-Employment/School Physicals
Whether you’re a professional in the field or a student, there are many professions and learning institutions which require a medical evaluation and documentation of good health in order to keep employment or continue program participation. We offer quick, inexpensive, efficient turn- around time in getting your paperwork done and submitted to your boss, human resources office, school or other official with little hassle to you. Whether you need a physical exam, vaccinations, immunity titers, general blood work, or testing for T.B. we do it all! Scroll down to the bottom of this page and make an appointment with us today. No need to put this off a moment longer.
Pre-Surgical Evaluations
Before any major surgery, including oral surgery, your surgeon will want to know if your health is optimal and if there are few if any risks that might stand in your way of achieving a full and uneventful recovery afterward. This examination includes a full review of your medical history, a complete physical examination including an EKG and possibly a pulmonary function test depending on your health. We work hard with you to optimize your blood sugar, your weight, and blood pressure in order to lower your risks of infection or other complications. Scroll down to the bottom of this page and make your own appointment under”Administrative Physicals.” Be sure to bring with you any medical records you’d like us to review and contact information to your surgeon’s office or other doctors’ offices.
Sports Physicals
Need a physical examination before participating on a sports team? Well, look no further. We conduct full physical evaluations for all adults and kids as young as 12 years old for sports physicals. Completion of any medical forms are always included. Our exams are timely and efficient yet thorough. We take the hassle out of meeting your medical obligations.
All patients under the age of 18 years old must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
DOT Drug And Alcohol Testing
Are you an employer concerned about drug use in the workplace? Employers typically use drug screening to proactively protect themselves from the negative impacts of hiring drug users. While most employers are not required to drug test their employees, pre-employment urine testing is mandated among federally- regulated employers who employ individuals in safety-sensitive positions like long- haul truck drivers, bus and taxi drivers, airplane pilots, railroad employees and so on.
Travel Health Evaluations
Of all the nations, Americans are some of the most well-traveled people on the planet. For this reason, MIMPC is pleased to offer complete travel health services to our patients. Whether you’re traveling for business or personal reasons, we’ll help you prepare and protect your health while you are away.
Our services include pre and post consultations, immunizations, prescriptions for antibiotics in the event of traveler’s diarrhea and other preventive health recommendations and services customized to your needs.
In addition to travel-related vaccines, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advises you to be up to date with all routine vaccinations before you travel. Many preventable diseases rarely seen in the United States are still prevalent in other parts of the world.
