At Ellis Island, immigrants underwent a medical inspection that included a visual examination by doctors who looked for visible signs of illness or disease. They were also subjected to a series of questions about their health and medical history. If any issues were suspected, they might have been further examined or quarantined for further evaluation. Those deemed unfit for entry due to disease could be denied admission and sent back to their home country.
