Access to Care

Book an Outpatient Appointment

We recommend contacting us before you visit to reduce your waiting time and make sure you are directed to the right clinic for your condition. This step helps us refer you to the most suitable doctor or clinic from the start, especially since cancer care may involve more than one specialty within the hospital.

For New Patients

First Visit

If this is your first visit to the hospital

Care at Warith International is comprehensive, and our doctors and medical teams work in continuous coordination. We ask you to send your medical reports in advance so that a specialist doctor can review your case and determine the most suitable clinic for you before your appointment is scheduled.

Why Do We Review Reports Before Booking Your First Visit?

This step helps us direct you to the most suitable clinic from the very first visit.

In cancer care, choosing the right clinic does not depend on the name of the diagnosis alone. A case may require medical oncology, surgical oncology, radiotherapy, hemato-oncology, pediatric oncology, nuclear medicine, or more than one specialty at the same time. In addition, some specialties are not available every day, and some visits require lab tests, imaging, or preparation beforehand for the visit to be useful.

That is why we review reports before booking, so that patients do not come to a clinic that does not adequately meet their needs, or wait a long time only to be asked to book another appointment with a different specialty. The purpose of this advance review is not to delay your access to care, but to protect your time and direct you from your very first visit to the path best suited to your condition.

  • Preparing for a More Productive VisitWe help you know what to bring or complete before your appointment.
  • Reducing Unnecessary WaitingWe avoid bookings that may not lead to the right decision on the same day.
  • Choosing the Right SpecialtyWe identify the most suitable clinic based on your type of case and the reports available.
