The quality of diagnostics in Moscow meets global standards, while the cost is significantly lower than in other countries. You get the same CT, MRI and lab diagnostics without having to pay extra for the country’s reputation in healthcare. In the meantime, Moscow offers not just the convenient logistics, but also an opportunity to combine medical examinations with general tourism.

No. A medical coordinator will welcome you to the hospital and schedule the examinations for you. You stay in a private room and rest between the procedures. The coordinator will guide you through every step of the journey so that you don’t have to wait in lines or navigate the clinic on your own.

You stay in a private room, while the clinic provides you with meals tailored to your needs (offering, for instance, a snack before procedures or a special diet plan before colonoscopy). You do not have to worry about the day-to-day matters; the clinic will take care of everything.

No. On Day 2, you will discuss your overall health with your attending physician in person. Instead of a list of isolated test results, you will receive a comprehensive picture of your health along with personalized recommendations on what to do next, what appointments to make and what risks are worth paying special attention to. Moscow checkups entail a whole plan of action rather than simple diagnostics.

You’re already in a multidisciplinary hospital. Your attending physician will immediately refer you to the relevant specialist and draw up a treatment plan. There’s no scenario where you get a concerning ultrasound result and then have nowhere to find treatment – right here in the same hospital, you can see an oncologist, surgeon, or cardiologist and begin therapy without delay.

If you’re over 40, annual examination is recommended. If you have chronic diseases or risk factors such as family history, chronic stress, sedentary lifestyle, it’s best to get checked every 6-12 months. The checkup is not a one-off event, but a tool for regular health monitoring.

Yes, you can come with a relative or friend. Please discuss with the coordinator the accompanying person arrangements when booking.

The basic package is already quite comprehensive; however, adjustments are possible. If you'd like to add or remove anything, e.g., an additional MRI of a specific area or a consultation with a particular specialist, just let the coordinator know when you book, and it will be added to your plan.

The male program includes a urologist, prostate ultrasound, PSA screening, and scrotal ultrasound. The female program includes a gynecologist, breast cancer specialist, breast ultrasound, pelvic ultrasound, mammography, colposcopy, and cervical cancer screening. As for the rest, general practitioner, cardiologist, laboratory tests, CT, and MRI are the same in both programs.

The program is designed for adult patients. Regular checkups are recommended from the age of 30-35, a turning point for early risk factors. However, if you are younger and want a clear snapshot of your current physical condition, it's still an option.

Most foreigners need a visa to enter Russia. To get a checkup you need a medical visa (a business visa, purpose of visit —treatment) or a tourist visa. To apply for a visa, you need a passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of departure, a photo and an invitation letter from a hospital (for a medical visa).

It is possible to apply for an e-visa if you are a citizen of a country eligible for an e-visa or visa-free entry for up to 30 days. However, treatment is not an official purpose of a tourist visa, therefore, we recommend you to apply for a medical visa. This protects your patient rights and makes interactions with the hospital smoother. When you schedule, your medical coordinator will suggest the best visa option for you.
