Online consultation

A full consultation by video (Zoom) or phone, like a clinic visit, for patients abroad or who find it hard to come in. No traffic, no parking, no stress.

How it works

  1. Short suitability checkA short questionnaire, about two minutes. At this stage you can attach only a referral letter.
  2. Our team checks suitabilityand gets back to you. If an online consultation is suitable, we will send instructions for sharing your records. If not, we will suggest a clinic visit.
  3. Send your records, only after approvalMedical letters, lab results, lung function tests, the complete imaging studies and a full medication list, including inhalers. If tests are missing, we will tell you which.
  4. The consultationBy video or phone, in English or Hebrew.
  5. Written summaryWith recommendations for your treating physician.

Sending imaging

After suitability is confirmed, and before the consultation, please make sure everything has been sent, including the complete imaging studies: the image files themselves (CT, X-rays), not only the reports. You can share them through a cloud link, or send a disc by courier to the clinic.

For cloud sharing, open a personal account with an image-sharing service, upload the contents of the disc and send us a viewing link. Examples include PostDICOM, which also allows comparison between studies, and DICOM Library; any similar service can be used.

Uploading images to a cloud service is solely the patient’s responsibility, including with regard to privacy. These services are mentioned for convenience only and are not affiliated with the clinic.

Good to know

  • Before the consultation, make sure you have a stable internet connection, or good phone reception, and a quiet place.
  • An online consultation does not include a physical examination. When an examination or spirometry is needed, we will recommend a clinic visit.
  • Online consultations are for planned evaluation and follow-up, not for urgent problems.
  • Recommendations are intended for your treating physician, who continues to manage your care.
