St. Luke's Extension Clinic

Ermita, Manila
Ermita, Manila
St. Luke's OPENING HOURS start at 7:30 AM Monday - Friday, excluding holidays.
St. Luke's added the option to pay for the medical through Security Bank, you can go to a Security Bank branch to pay or if you are a Security Bank account holder you can use the online payment system. Of course paying in Pesos at SLEC is still available.
Arriving hours before St. Luke's opens is not necessary, if you arrived an hour or two after the clinic opens you will still easily complete the 1st day with much less standing in line. Some arrive closer to 10-11 AM and still easily complete Day 1 of the medical.

~Do take note~
- TB sputum; If you had to complete the culture test, keep close track of the visa validity date, as it is tied to the initial medical date, thus you will be short of the 6 months, you may only have 90 to 120 days before the visa expires.
- TB treatment; If you have to complete the 6 months of DOT treatment you will have to pay for a second medical fee upon completion. This will only allow you 90 days to enter the USA.
- Seeking treatment outside St. Luke's will not save you time with this process, it may very well increase the timeline for completing the medical, as the CDC will require a 1 year wait before completing the medical
Foot Notes
For the K-1 on the SLEC website they list the NVC letter/email as a required document. It may be possible to use the CEAC status page that shows your MNL#, this had been a work around for years, then this past year SLEC started to make the NVC letter/email required. Now it appears that SLEC has been more lax in accepting the CEAC status page.
NO MEDICAL FILE TO HAND CARRY: SLEC has started to implement the electronic medical file to the embassy to coincide with the new electronic file system being used with immigrant visas (mostly right now).
HAND CARRIED MEDICAL FILE: K-1 for the most part is still hand carrying the medical file to the embassy interview from SLEC.
