Why Choose IM&PC for Adoption Physicals in Saltillo & New Albany

Adoption Physicals are comprehensive evaluations that document the health status of prospective parents and, when required, other household members for the home study process. An adoption physical exam verifies that you are medically able to care for a child, summarizes current conditions and medications, and confirms that any ongoing treatment is stable. At Internal Medical & Pediatric Clinic (IM&PC), our clinicians complete agency‑specific forms, explain results in plain language, and keep the process moving for families in New Albany & Saltillo.

Every adoption physical exam begins with listening. Your clinician reviews your health history, medications, allergies, and prior surgeries, then completes a focused head‑to‑toe exam that includes vital signs and a discussion of lifestyle factors relevant to caregiving. Many agencies require tuberculosis screening and basic laboratory tests, and some also request proof of immunization status. Internal Medical & Pediatric Clinic provides in‑house X‑rays when indicated, as well as bloodwork and vaccine updates, so Adoption Physicals can be completed in one place across New Albany & Saltillo.

Documentation is key. Adoption agencies often provide their own forms, which include sections for a clinician’s signature, a summary of the adoption physical examination, and statements regarding the individual’s fitness for parenting. Bring every page to your visit so nothing is missed. At Internal Medical & Pediatric Clinic, we complete paperwork carefully, provide copies for your records, and can send documents securely to your agency when allowed. If your agency requires additional statements from specialists, we help coordinate the requests and make sure your Adoption Physicals remain on track in New Albany & Saltillo.

Timing matters during a home study. Some forms must be submitted within a specific window and remain valid for only a number of months. IM&PC helps you plan your adoption physical exam around these deadlines and explains how long lab results or TB testing may take. Internal Medical & Pediatric Clinic usually finishes documentation as soon as the required information is available, and our teams in New Albany & Saltillo communicate clearly about pickup, portal access, or secure transmission.

Adoption paths vary. Domestic and international programs can differ in the tests, immunizations, and language used on forms. Internal Medical & Pediatric Clinic is familiar with a wide range of requirements and keeps the adoption physical exam focused on what your agency needs. Whether you are adopting an infant, a child, or a sibling group, our approach is the same: thorough, respectful, and efficient for families throughout New Albany & Saltillo.
