Seeking information about the consultation process

[Matt27]

I am just wondering how the process would work in my case from start to finish.

 

I am from Canada and am looking to have a HT relatively soon (1 year or a little longer). I am looking at Lorenzo, Feriduni, and Bisanga all of whom are located in Europe.

 

I understand that you typically have online consultations first after contacting a clinic. In my case, would there be no in person consultations? Would the process go immediately from online/email consultation to pre-surgery appointment(day before surgery)/surgery? Is skype used at all?

 

Also, do the the above doctors provide any compensation for travel? Rahal in Canada for example will expense up to $1000 CAD off of the price of your surgery iirc.

 

Thanks.
