Frequently Asked Questions

Clinicreview takes pride in offering its services to patients completely free of charge. We believe in transparency, and you pay directly for your treatment at the hospital or clinic following your initial in-person consultation.

Payment for your treatment is made directly at the hospital or clinic in the local currency. Various payment options are typically available, including cash, bank transfers, credit cards, debit cards, and traveler’s cheques. For any uncertainties, feel free to consult your coordinator at the hospital before your departure.

Certainly. Thanks to substantial budgets, top-notch facilities abroad boast world-renowned brands and state-of-the-art technologies. Medical tourist destinations now cater not only to cosmetic and plastic surgery but also to advanced treatments like fertility treatments, stem cell therapies, and cutting-edge cancer treatments.

The duration of your stay depends on the nature of the procedures. Some cosmetic procedures have minimal downtime and can be completed in minutes, while major surgical treatments may require a week or more. Our team can provide guidance, but the final decision rests with your surgeon.

Yes, it is safe, but we recommend having a supportive companion if possible. Traveling with someone familiar can offer comfort, especially in a new country. If traveling alone is inevitable, rest assured that hospital staff will provide the care and attention you need throughout the process.

At present, we do not coordinate flight bookings, but fantastic deals can often be found through regular checks. Traveling during off-peak seasons is a savvy way to reduce expenses, both for flights and accommodation. While we do not handle flights, we are more than happy to assist you by providing accommodation recommendations.

In certain instances, it may be possible. You should consult your insurance provider to ascertain whether they cover ‘out-of-network’ care, potentially allowing you to seek reimbursement for expenses upon your return home.
