The rest I liked everything
Good evening! In the Severance clinic itself, I liked everything. Everything is very organized. Polite clinic staff. There was one caveat. Nobody told me that preparations for a colonoscopy will be delivered to the hotel. If I hadn’t come to Severance hospital the day before, I’ve found a girl who speaks Russian. She phoned the clinic and explained that the package should wait at the hotel. A. So I would not be prepared on the appointed day. The rest I liked everything. I plan to come to you in a year. Thanks for all !!

FAQ

How much does it cost to get tested for cancer in Asia?

The lowest cancer screening cost within Asia is in India and Thailand. Choosing check-up in these countries, you save up to 75% over US prices depending on the package.

Usually, expenses for an oncologic check-up in Asian clinics is 2-3 times lower than in European or US ones. The cancer screening cost is determined by the average pricing and living wage within a particular country.

How much does it cost to get checked for cancer in Europe?

At European medical centers, you may find different prices of oncologic screening depending on the local citizens' income — from the low cancer check-up cost to expensive enough.

Spanish, German, Austrian, or Italian clinics provide high-quality and precise examinations. Doctors here are globally recognized by the authoritative editions like Forbes. They have years of experience, apply the most advanced equipment, develop unique check-up programs to achieve the precise result of diagnostics in the shortest term.

Lithuanian or Polish medical facilities also provide excellent services. However, the cancer screening cost in these countries is 2 times lower than in Spain, Germany, Austria, or Italy because of the lower living wage.

What is the cancer screening cost in the Near East?

The best oncologic check-ups are performed at Israeli and Turkish hospitals according to Bookimed patients' ranking. The cancer screening test cost in these states is regulated by the local Ministries of Health and is the same for citizens and international patients.

However, you'll save up to 70% choosing cancer check-up in Turkey. The cancer screening cost there is 3 times lower than in Israel regarding regional residents' income and average price policy within the country.

What does the cancer check-up cost include?

Usually, the cancer screening program involves:

  • computed tomography (CT) of the chest
  • MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) of the abdomen and pelvis
  • thyroid ultrasound
  • tumor markers of the most common cancers
  • complete blood count.

The tumor markers for men include a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test to determine the risk of prostate cancer. The cancer check-up program for women includes breast, ovarian, cervical and uterine malignancies research.

Doctors may add other tests and examinations into the basic cancer screening program according to your preferences. But pay attention, additional procedures increase the cancer check-up cost.

How to reduce the cancer screening test cost?

There are only 2 sure-fire ways to cut down the cancer screening cost:

  1. Choose the country, where the cancer check-up programs are cheaper. Among states with the lowest cancer screening test costs are India, Thailand, Turkey, Lithuania, Poland. So you may find the affordable oncologic examinations in both Asia and Europe.
  1. Look for the hot offers in clinics. Some medical facilities often provide patients with discount check-up packages. However, they are limited in time. Bookimed cooperates with 300+ centers worldwide. Some of them reduce the cancer screening cost for Bookimed patients.
