Start with the right questions
Choosing healthcare is personal. Location, clinical suitability, communication and continuity of care all matter.
Services and support vary between providers. Discuss clinical options and suitability directly with qualified professionals, and ask for clear written information about the practical arrangements before making a commitment.
Before confirming an appointment
- Check the provider’s identity, professional registration and relevant experience through appropriate official sources.
- Ask about the appointment format, language support and what information the provider needs.
- Request a written explanation of fees, what is included and cancellation arrangements.
- Ask how results, records and clinical follow-up will be handled.
If you are travelling
Ask your clinician about fitness to travel and any aftercare requirements. Confirm visas, insurance cover, accommodation and travel arrangements with the relevant organisations. Allow time for changes to the plan.
Think beyond the appointment
Discuss who will provide follow-up when you return home, how records will be shared securely and who to contact with clinical concerns. Do not assume providers in different countries will automatically share information or continue a treatment plan.
