Scarborough is home to one of the most diverse immigrant communities in Canada, and many residents here are navigating IRCC applications for permanent residence, sponsorship, or study and work permits. If you need an Immigration Medical Exam, GTA Immigration Medical — an IRCC-approved panel physician clinic just north in Markham — is an easy trip from neighbourhoods like Agincourt, Malvern, Milliken, Scarborough Town Centre, and Rouge.
The Drive Up from Scarborough
From the central and eastern parts of the city, Highway 401 to Markham Road (Highway 48) northbound takes you up to Highway 7, where you turn toward the clinic. McCowan Road is the other straight shot north — it runs from Scarborough Town Centre all the way up to Highway 7, a few minutes west of our door. From the west end of Scarborough, Highway 404 or the DVP up to the 407, then east to Highway 7, is often quicker. Most Scarborough residents arrive in about 20 to 30 minutes. Parking is free and plentiful in the Liberty Square plaza — a welcome change from hunting for a spot downtown.
If you rely on transit, TTC riders can take Line 2 or the Scarborough bus network north to Steeles Avenue, then transfer to YRT/Viva service along the Highway 7 corridor, which runs past the clinic. GO Transit's Stouffville line is also an option for reaching the Markham area from Scarborough's east side — Unionville and Centennial stations are both a short connection away.
Why Scarborough Applicants Come to Us
Rather than booking a physician in one place and bloodwork at a separate lab, you complete your IME — exam, blood test, and urine test — in a single same-day appointment. Given how much of Scarborough's community speaks Cantonese and Mandarin, our multilingual staff (Cantonese and Mandarin, and Punjabi at times) often make the difference in helping applicants feel understood.
Same-Day Appointments & Fast IRCC Submission
Same-day and next-day appointments are often available, and your results go to IRCC electronically through eMedical, typically within 5-10 days of your exam. You also leave with your IME/UMI case number in hand, so you can confirm the medical step is done while the rest of your application moves.
Not the Only Panel Clinic — Just the Closest One-Visit Option
There are IRCC panel physicians scattered across Toronto and Scarborough, and you are free to use any of them. What tends to bring Scarborough applicants north is the combination: one visit instead of two locations, published pricing instead of a quote at the counter, and free parking instead of a mall garage. Always confirm any clinic you consider appears on IRCC's official panel physician list before you book.
