After we’ve received your diagnostic images, our experts will begin assessing your scans.

The review typically takes around 2 weeks, although it could take longer if we have a backlog of cases to evaluate. Once the review is complete, we’ll reach out to discuss the findings of the review and possible treatment options for those findings.  
In order to get actual treatment advise you will need to schedule an appointment to be seen so our experts can get a full understanding of who you are and how best they can help you.
