Care in San Francisco, our nearest city to Vancouver
Many people in Vancouver begin in San Francisco, the closest of our cities, where we arrange care with the city's best clinics and follow it through, with doctor at your home or hotel from $400, executive health from $14,000 and full body MRI from $2,750.
Members are seen first, and anyone can request an appointment today. Your results and your plan stay in one record, so a doctor in London begins where a doctor in San Francisco left off.
Care in London for people from Vancouver
Our clinics are on Baker Street in Marylebone and Eccleston Street in Belgravia, open from early morning to evening every day. A GP appointment is £150, a doctor to your hotel is £450, and the executive physical, a full day with one physician and every result reviewed before you leave, is £2,995.
Specialist appointments and any scans or tests are fitted around the days you are in London, so even a short stay covers everything you came for.
Travelling to London for care
Holders of a passport from Canada can apply for an electronic travel authorisation, which costs £20 and allows a visit of up to 6 months [1] [2]. Medical treatment is among the reasons a visitor may come [3].
Health care in Vancouver
All residents of British Columbia must enrol with the Medical Services Plan, the province’s health insurance [4].
Physicians and surgeons in the province are regulated by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia, which serves the public through that work [5].
The City of Vancouver had an estimated 740,454 residents in 2025, according to the BC Stats municipal population estimates [6].
Arranging a visit from Vancouver
Message your concierge on WhatsApp or request an appointment here, and tell us the dates you can travel and the question you most want answered. We reply within the hour, at any time of day in Vancouver, and propose appointment times before you book a flight.
Where a visit includes scans or blood tests, we set them early in your stay, so that your doctor can go through every result with you before you leave. Specialist appointments are arranged on the days around it, and each fee is told to you before anything is confirmed.
Time zones and travel
Calls with your doctor are set for a sensible hour in Vancouver, once we know your time zone. If the flight is long, most people prefer to rest on the day they land and be seen the next morning, and your concierge plans for that.
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.
Letters go to you in English, ready for a doctor in Vancouver, and your results stay in your record after you leave. Next time you come, nothing has to be repeated.
