How Dr. Tipi works with international patients
Dr. Tipi consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. Before a visit, the international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and imaging, such as echocardiography or other ultrasound reports, CT or MRI reports, X-rays, laboratory results, operative notes and discharge summaries, arranges appointments and organizes the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of existing imaging and previous treatments, a clinical examination and a discussion of the available options. Video consultation is available for international patients, which may be used for an initial review of records or for follow-up, depending on the clinical situation.
