Plan the visit around the hospital
Ask the hospital whether an appointment, referral, passport, translated records or deposit is required. Do not book flights or accommodation around an assumed treatment date until the institution confirms the schedule.
Prepare a concise medical file
- Chronology of symptoms and prior diagnoses.
- Current medicines, dose, allergies and relevant test results.
- Questions for the treating team and the name of an emergency contact.
Where accompaniment fits
We can coordinate a visit, navigate the facility, provide medical interpretation and organize follow-up questions. We do not provide medical opinions, treatment, emergency care or outcome guarantees.
Official sources
Hospital procedures, fees and availability can change. Confirm current details with the hospital. Listing an institution does not imply a partnership or endorsement.
