Medical tests for I 693

My mother is on B1 to USA in PLANO TEXAS. She is aged 76 years . We plan to file for her GC.

There is an I693 form to be filed by a civil surgeon designated by USCIS.
Mother has taken 2 COVID vaccines and booster in India .
Q1) Does she have to take the MMR , TDab , Varicella , and other 7 vaccines ??( She has taken 2 COVID vaccine doses in India. She does not have record of the vaccines she may have taken in childhood.)
Q2) Do you recommend any specific clinic OR Dr in PLANO TEXAS.
Q3). The price of vaccines vary by various Drs we had approached . Does anyone have any suggestion on the same .
Thank you

The number of vaccines is limited by age (what they require), you can find information on USCIS site.

For MMR, TDab, and Varicella you can do a lab test to show that you are immune, the civil surgeon will use that and will not give you unnecessary shots.

When we did our medical exams, the prices varies a lot from one doctor and another, I called several and some are no longer in business.

Check your local public health clinics, you may be able to get the vaccines at lower prices.
