Jesus. I had an appointment booked with Pope in Kitchener next month who wanted $100, but I ended up going to T-Bay early and seeing Lower for only $40. Glad I took that trip!

Who was charging 200 in Kitchener?

This is an interesting topic as the cost of the medical is really up to the doctor.

Check out the range of prices from this post in January http://www.avcanada.ca/forums2/viewtopi ... 54&t=38584

While cheapest isn't always best, it pays to call around a bit.

But, this year I paid $ 120 (I am now in Vancouver).
I still do not know why I had to pay $ 40 more? (for the same Cat 1 Renewal)

$70 for medical
$22 for ECG
$50 for Audiogram
I like it this way due to the fact Audio is only once, ECG is every 1 or 2 yrs so that's under $100 basically
Here in TO with an approved Air Canada AME.
Going up to Thunder Bay in the fall will be another savings! :D

In 4 medicals with Lower, I have paid $60, $20, $40, and charged one through OHIP, I have no idea how. End of the appointment went something like this:

Me: "So how much do I owe you?"
L: "Well, whats it worth to you?"
Me: "Heard a rumour you were able to put it through on OHIP, I'd appreciate that if its not a huge hassle"
L: "Ok, can I see your health card?"

I have a booking here in Surrey and was warned that it would be $150.00 plus $20.00 for the ECG. The last medical was adrift for over a year before I had to fight with TC and threaten to hand this to a lawyer. Too bad those twits can't file medicals properly!

Sounds like he did you a favour. I hope nobody rats him out by posting his real name or anything.....
