Wafid / GAMCA Medical Centers in Islamabad — Complete Guide 2026

Islamabad, Pakistan’s federal capital, has 14 officially approved Wafid / GAMCA medical centers authorized by the Gulf Health Council to conduct pre-departure medical examinations for GCC visa applicants. Spread across key sectors including G-8, G-9, G-10, I-11, F-11, and the Blue Area, these centers serve residents of Islamabad as well as applicants from neighboring Rawalpindi who often travel to the capital for their examination.

Which Areas of Islamabad Have GAMCA Centers?

Unlike Karachi (concentrated in PECHS) or Lahore (concentrated in Johar Town), Islamabad’s Wafid / GAMCA centers are distributed more evenly across the city’s planned sectors:

• G-8/1 (I&T Center): Emerald Diagnostics, RediMed Medical Center, Swift Healthcare Services
• G-9/4 (I&T Center): RR Diagnostics Centre
• G-10/3 & G-10/4 (I&T Center): GCC Diagnostic Centre, Marwa Diagnostic Center, Rafay Diagnostic Centre
• H-8/4: Shifa International Hospital (the only center open on Saturdays)
• I-11/2 & I-11/3: Muscat Diagnostic Center, Safa Diagnostic Center, Valley Care Medical Diagnostics
• F-11 Markaz: Najum ul Khaleej Diagnostic Center
• Blue Area: Ibn-e-Sena Laboratory
• Khanna (Expressway): Premier Diagnostics

What Documents Are Required at Islamabad GAMCA Centers?

Bring the following on the day of your medical appointment at any Islamabad center:

• Original passport with a minimum of 7 months and 21 days of remaining validity
• 2 photocopies of the passport bio-data page
• Wafid / GAMCA appointment token slip (PDF sent to your WhatsApp and email)
• 2–4 recent passport-size photographs on a white background

What Is the Medical Test Fee in Islamabad?

The Wafid / GAMCA medical examination fee at Islamabad centers typically ranges from Rs. 9,000 to Rs. 14,000 depending on the center. Shifa International Hospital — being a larger, more prominent facility — may charge on the higher end. This fee is paid directly at the center and is entirely separate from our appointment booking service fee of Rs. 4,000. Most centers only accept cash, so carry enough funds in advance.

How Long Does the Medical Examination Take in Islamabad?

The full Wafid / GAMCA medical examination in Islamabad — blood tests, chest X-ray, urine analysis, and physical check-up — typically takes between 1.5 to 3 hours. Smaller I&T Center-based facilities tend to process candidates faster than larger hospital-based centers. Arrive before 9:00 AM on a weekday for the shortest wait.

When Will My Result Be Available After Testing in Islamabad?

Islamabad centers typically upload examination results to the WAFID system within 2 to 4 working days. Shifa International Hospital generally uploads results faster due to its larger laboratory infrastructure. You can check your result online at our report check page or directly at wafid.com using your passport number. If results are not showing after 5 working days, contact us on WhatsApp and we will follow up with the center.
