Bring the detail that matters to your concern

A symptom can fit more than one care area. For example, difficulty walking may lead to a conversation about a joint, muscle, nerve or rehabilitation concern. Use the individual pages to prepare questions, then let the clinical team explain the appropriate assessment. Ask what the proposed care is intended to address and how its suitability will be decided.

Ask the hospital team
01 / BEFORE

Identify your questions

Browse the relevant topic. Keep a short note so you can explain what you want from the visit.

02 / DURING

Understand the assessment

Read the linked service information. Ask the clinician to explain the purpose, options and limitations in terms you understand.

03 / AFTER

Clarify the next step

Call or request an appointment and confirm availability. Confirm who will review your concern or results and how to arrange follow-up.

Keep your previous care in context.

Tell the team about relevant previous consultations and any care already advised. Ask whether existing reports or a current medicine list would be useful. Share medical files only when requested: send your appointment message first, then attach them privately in the same WhatsApp chat.

Request a consultation

Useful answers for your next step.

What if my concern fits more than one category?

Start with the concern that affects you most, or call the hospital. You do not need to choose a procedure before a clinical assessment.

Are all listed topics confirmed services?

Some category scopes still need hospital confirmation. The page marks these clearly; ask the team about current availability and the responsible clinician.

Can I share medical files here?

The static appointment page prepares text only. Send your request in WhatsApp first, then attach requested reports, images, videos or payment proof in the same chat.

YOUR NEXT STEP

A conversation can
make things clearer.
