Exactly What IMC Does — and What It Does Not

IMC is a medical coordination service. The scope is deliberately narrow: your assessment, your specialist appointment, your treatment plan and your documentation. Everything outside that is stated plainly below.

Cross-Border Transfer

Collected From Home, Returned After Discharge

A complimentary seven-seat transfer runs between your Hong Kong address and the hospital, included with your treatment package.

  1. 01

    Door-to-door across Hong Kong

    Pick-up from your address on Hong Kong Island, in Kowloon or the New Territories.

  2. 02

    Through the border without leaving the vehicle

    Shenzhen Bay or Huanggang crossing, with the driver handling the route.

  3. 03

    Direct to the hospital entrance

    No transfers, no waiting at the checkpoint, no walking with luggage.

  4. 04

    Returned to your Hong Kong address

    The same service brings you home on the day you are discharged.

Vehicle

  • Seven-seat MPV, Toyota Alphard class
  • Room to travel comfortably after surgery
  • Wi-Fi, drinking water and charging on board
  • Drivers speak Cantonese, English and Mandarin

Timing

  • Admission dayDeparts Hong Kong 08:00 – 10:00
  • Discharge dayDeparts the hospital 14:00 – 16:00
  • Other timesBy prior arrangement with your coordinator

Transfer is arranged by your coordinator once an admission date is confirmed. Flights, accommodation and visas remain outside our service.

Our Scope

The Six Things We Handle

Each of these is a defined deliverable with a named person responsible for it, not a general promise of help.

Case intake and record checking

We check that your imaging and history are complete before a consultant sees them, and tell you exactly what is missing and how to obtain it.

Routing to the right subspecialty

Your case goes to a consultant who practises in the relevant area — knee, spine, joint reconstruction, sports medicine or rehabilitation.

Written specialist review

A written summary of the options identified, the findings each rests on, and what would change the plan. Normally within 48 hours of a complete submission.

Itemised cost estimate

Prepared with the treatment plan, before you commit to anything, with inclusions and exclusions stated in full.

Appointment and admission scheduling

If you proceed, we arrange the date, the admission and the pre-operative workup with the treating department.

Bilingual documentation

Treatment plan, itemised invoice, discharge summary and rehabilitation protocol, prepared in English and Chinese for your own physician.

Our Boundaries

What IMC Does Not Do

Stated in writing so there is no ambiguity later. If you need any of the following, you will need to arrange it independently.

Not a travel service

  • Flights, airport transfers or local transport
  • Hotels or accommodation of any kind
  • Visa applications or immigration advice
  • Chaperone, tour or leisure arrangements
  • Anything that is not part of your medical plan

Not a clinical provider

  • IMC does not diagnose or treat. Clinical care is delivered by the treating hospital and its physicians, who remain responsible for clinical decisions.
  • IMC does not own or operate hospitals.
  • IMC does not guarantee any clinical outcome, recovery time or result.
  • IMC does not provide emergency care. Emergency symptoms must be assessed locally.
  • IMC does not advise on whether your insurance policy will pay.

Your Coordinator

One Named Person, Start to Finish

You are not routed through a queue. The coordinator assigned at intake stays with your case through discharge and follow-up.

  • Confirms receipt of your records the same working day
  • Tells you what is missing and exactly how to ask for it
  • Passes the case to the right consultant and chases the review
  • Walks you through the written plan and the estimate, in your language
  • Arranges the appointment date, admission and pre-operative workup
  • Handles follow-up questions after you return home

Languages

Coordination in English, 廣東話 and 普通話. Where a consultant works in Mandarin only, the coordinator interprets for the consultation and the written plan is produced bilingually.

Replies Monday–Saturday, 09:00–19:00 HKT.

Timeline

How Long Each Stage Actually Takes

Stages one to three are remote and cost nothing. You can stop at any point.

Records received

Receipt confirmed the same working day. If something essential is missing, you are told what to obtain and from whom.

专家评审

Normally within 48 hours of a complete submission. Complex cases, or cases needing a second subspecialty, take longer — you are told if that applies.

Plan and estimate

Written plan and itemised estimate follow the review, then a call with your coordinator to work through them.

Scheduling

Only if you decide to proceed. Appointment date, admission and pre-operative workup arranged with the treating department.

Your Records

How Your Medical Information Is Handled

  • Records are shared only with the coordinator assigned to your case and the consultant reviewing it.
  • They are not published, sold, or used for marketing, and are never shown as a case example.
  • You can ask for your files to be deleted at any time by writing to info@imcdoctor.com.
  • Submitting an assessment form does not create a doctor–patient relationship.
  • We do not post patient testimonials, recovery stories or before-and-after images anywhere on this site.

Why there are no patient stories here

Testimonials and recovery stories are persuasive precisely because they are individual — which is what makes them a poor basis for a medical decision, and why we do not publish them. What you get instead is the reasoning behind a recommendation, in writing, for your own case.

Services FAQ

Questions About How This Works

No. The assessment is entirely remote — imaging, history, written review, plan and estimate. Travel only becomes relevant if you decide to proceed with treatment, and that decision is yours to make after you have everything in writing.

No. IMC does not arrange flights, accommodation or visas, and does not partner with anyone who does. Our scope is medical assessment, specialist appointments and treatment coordination. Anything else you arrange independently.

The treating hospital and the treating physician are responsible for clinical care and clinical decisions. IMC coordinates access and documentation; it does not practise medicine. This is stated in the medical disclaimer at the bottom of every page.

You leave with a bilingual discharge summary and a rehabilitation protocol written so your own physician or physiotherapist can work from it directly. Follow-up questions go through your coordinator, and further review appointments can be arranged if needed.

Yes, with your consent. Tell the coordinator who is authorised to speak for you and in which language, and that is recorded on the case.

You will be told so, plainly, and told why. Cases that need emergency care, cases outside the subspecialties in the network, and cases where the imaging does not support the operation being sought all fall into that category. There is no cost and no pressure to continue.
