Your consultation question sheet.
Use this space to prepare for a conversation. Your treating team must answer questions about your own health, treatment and travel.
Your goals
Which concerns do I want to discuss? What alternatives, including no procedure, should I understand?
The clinician
Who performs each part of the procedure? How do I check their license and relevant specialty?
Relevant experience
What experience do you have with patients whose history and goals resemble mine? What limitations should I expect?
The facility
Where would the operation take place? Who provides anesthesia, and what arrangements exist for urgent care?
Recovery abroad
Who will review me, how can I reach them, and who can help me during recovery?
Returning home
Who decides when I can travel? Who handles follow-up at home and how are records transferred?
The full cost
What does the written quote include? What happens if my stay, follow-up or treatment needs change?
Time to decide
Can I take this information away, discuss it with my own clinician, and decide without a deposit deadline?
