Has anyone ever done a medical in Hong Kong? I am told by my next employer I must get a medical outside of China. They say Hong Kong. What is the cost of a medical in Hong Kong?

any walk-in clinic should offer a "pre-employment" exam package for approximately HK$800.

Ask your potential employer what they need; the clinic doctor can probably give you a note stating that you are "fit to be a teacher" after a cursory exam and it will cost less than HK$200. Cool

these clinics are located all over HK, and many are found in MTR stations. Wink They would be cheaper than the government public health clinics since (I assume) you do not hold a HKID card.

HK is part of PRC.

You may have to do another medical in the city in China where your employer is located.

Can't see a chinese employer reimbursing you HK medical fees.

GZ cheaper though.
