ext & Image Teleconsultation

Before you travel to China for medical treatment, let a licensed physician from a Chinese hospital review your medical records first to help you decide whether to proceed. You can upload your medical history and test reports at home — our platform will organize and translate the documents, then match them with a corresponding licensed physician. After reviewing your materials, the doctor will issue a written diagnosis and treatment recommendation, along with guidance on medication and medical visits. You will receive a response within 48 hours from the moment the case is accepted. We will deliver the original Chinese response from the doctor, plus a bilingual consultation summary organized by our platform. This is a flat, per-case price that already includes the physician's consultation fee — no additional service charges will be levied by the platform.
