How appointments work at VMH Hospitals
As a private hospital, VMH Hospitals takes bookings directly rather than through the public appointment system. For patients travelling from abroad, ask whether an international patient coordinator will handle your consultation, interpreter, transfers and accommodation — and which of those are included.
Step 1: Decide what you need
Note the treatment you are considering, any surgeon you would like to see and when you could travel to Istanbul.
Step 2: Send a consultation request
Use the consultation request form and name VMH Hospitals in your message, with the procedure and your timeframe. It takes a few minutes and does not commit you to anything.
Step 3: Add your medical details
Include your age, height and weight, medications, medical conditions and any previous surgery, and have clear photographs of the area ready.
Step 4: We come back with options
We check your request against the profiles we hold and the other providers that match what you are looking for, then reply with options. We are not a clinical service: nothing we send is a diagnosis or a treatment plan, and a request is not a booking.
Step 5: Confirm everything in writing
Agree the date, the surgeon who will see you, the address, any consultation fee and — if you go ahead — an itemised quote, all in writing.
Step 6: Attend your consultation in person
The surgeon examines you at VMH Hospitals, confirms whether the treatment suits you and explains the risks, recovery and full cost. Take time to decide before paying a deposit.

Consultation fees, quotes and deposits
Consultation fees, treatment prices and deposit terms are set by each practice. Before your appointment, ask VMH Hospitals whether there is a consultation fee and what it covers.
A reliable quote is written and itemised: the surgeon's fee, hospital and anaesthesia costs, nights in hospital, compression garments, medication, follow-up visits and transfers. Ask what is not included as well as what is.
Treat any price given before an examination as provisional. The final plan, and the final price, depend on what the surgeon finds when they examine you. The UK's NHS advises against paying for treatment at a hospital you have never seen, so keep deposits refundable where you can.
