Arranging a visit from Umhlanga & Ballito

Time zones and travel

We arrange calls at an hour that suits you in Umhlanga & Ballito. After a long flight, a first appointment on the morning after you arrive usually leaves you clearer than one on the day itself, and your concierge will suggest it.

Before you travel, a checklist

A little preparation lets a doctor see the whole picture on the first day.

• Your recent results and letters, in English where you can, on your phone or on paper
• A list of your medicines and their doses, with a letter from your doctor for any that are restricted
• The question you most want answered, written down
• The dates you are in the city, so your concierge can plan tests and results around them

When you are home again

Your doctor can follow up by telephone or video wherever you are, and your plan stays in your record. If you need care where you live, your concierge can help you find it and send your letters ahead, with your consent.

Every letter is written in English, so a doctor in Umhlanga & Ballito can read it, and your results stay available to you after you fly home. When you next travel, your doctor begins from where you left off.
