Cancer care in China for international patients
Considering cancer treatment in China or another specialist opinion before travel? Start with your diagnosis, pathology, stage if known and previous treatment. We help organise the information and identify an appropriate hospital review route; the receiving clinicians decide which options may be suitable.

Before arranging cancer care in China
An international enquiry can begin while you remain at home. You do not need to choose a treatment or commit to travel first.
A clear clinical question
Tell us whether you need clarification of the diagnosis, a further opinion on treatment or help arranging a hospital visit. Ask which pathology, imaging and treatment records the relevant team needs.
The right type of review
A records-based specialist opinion or multidisciplinary review may be an option, with the scope and fee agreed first. A proxy consultation is optional and is not a live video appointment between the patient and specialist.
Acceptance and a written estimate
Before planning travel, confirm hospital acceptance, the proposed assessment or treatment scope, language support and what an estimate includes. Hospital charges and our coordination fees are separate.
