Before arranging rare diseases in China

Explain your main question and prepare the diagnostic timeline, previous source tests and the unresolved question.

Start with a clear review question

Tell us the diagnosis if known, what you have already tried and which reports are available. We help identify the relevant specialist pathway and records needed for hospital review.

Confirm the assessment and estimate

Distinguish diagnostic review from access to a specific therapy. Ask the centre to confirm evidence, eligibility, lawful access and how continuing care would be supported at home. Hospital acceptance, the actual clinical scope and any separately agreed coordination fee need confirmation before booking.

Choose the next step that fits

You can enquire about an opinion, a specialist appointment or treatment arrangements. An optional records-based specialist review is agreed separately; an initial enquiry does not commit you to a paid service.

Family historyA pedigree and relatives’ records may change interpretation.
Re-analysisOlder genomic data may benefit from updated interpretation.
CoordinationMany rare conditions involve several organs and specialties.
