Cardiology in Vietnam.
This carries the widest cost gap in our table, and it needs the most careful records review before anyone flies.
Cardiac care is not something to arrange in a hurry. If your condition needs intervention within days, be treated where you are. This page is for planned cases — where preparing properly helps, rather than where time is the deciding factor.
We handle the logistics.
The medicine belongs to the surgeon. Everything around it — the part that makes people give up — belongs to us.
A cardiologist reads your records before you fly
Angiography, echocardiogram and current medication translated and sent ahead. If you should not travel, we say so.
Facility chosen on capability, not on comfort
For this specialty the catheterisation lab and the on-call team are the criteria, not the room.
Arrangements for someone with you
Nobody should have a cardiac procedure alone in another country. Accommodation and transfers cover your companion too.
A handover your own cardiologist can use
Discharge summary, medication and follow-up schedule in English, in the format your doctor works from.
