Arranging your consultation
Appointments & Fees
How do I request an appointment?
Call or message Istanbul Allergy using the links on this page. Tell our team the patient’s age, reason for the appointment, preferred dates and whether you would like an online or clinic consultation.
Can I request an appointment for a child or an adult?
Yes. We accept consultation enquiries for children and adults. Tell our team the patient’s age and main concern so the consultation scope and arrangements can be confirmed.
Is my appointment confirmed when I send a WhatsApp message?
No. A message is an enquiry. Your appointment is confirmed after our team has agreed the date, time, consultation format and relevant booking arrangements with you.
How can I find out consultation, test and treatment fees?
Contact our team for current fees and ask what is included. Consultation, sample collection, testing, treatment and follow-up may be charged separately. Confirm the scope and charges before proceeding.
What if I need to change my appointment?
Contact our team as early as possible. Availability, rescheduling terms and any applicable charges need to be confirmed for your booking.
Which languages are available?
Tell our team your preferred language when enquiring. Available communication and consultation support will be confirmed before booking. Website translations do not guarantee that a doctor or interpreter is available in every language.
Selecting and preparing for investigations
Allergy Testing
Do I need to choose my allergy tests before the consultation?
You can ask about a specific test, but you do not need to choose a testing package yourself. Your doctor will review your history and previous investigations before discussing relevant next steps.
Can I discuss test results from another clinic?
Yes. Have previous reports ready and ask our team how to provide documents if needed before the appointment. Tell us which languages the documents are in and ask whether translation is needed.
Can I ask about specific IgE, molecular testing or BAT?
Yes. Contact our team to confirm the available test scope, suitability assessment and sample arrangements for your concern. Some specialist investigations need advance planning.
Should I stop medication before testing?
Ask for instructions for the specific investigation planned. Tell your doctor which medicines you take. Do not stop prescribed medication on your own.
Will all my test results be available the same day?
Not necessarily. Timing varies by test and sample requirements. Confirm expected result timing and how the results will be discussed before planning travel around a single visit.
Individual assessment and follow-up
Treatment Planning
Can I book a specific treatment before I have been assessed?
You can enquire about a treatment, but suitability must be assessed individually. An appointment request does not confirm that a particular treatment will be offered.
Can I ask about oral immunotherapy for food allergy?
Yes. Tell our team the patient’s age, the food involved and the reason for your enquiry. Ask about assessment, available programme scope, repeat visits and ongoing follow-up before making travel plans.
Do you offer information about injection and sublingual immunotherapy?
Yes. You can enquire about allergy immunotherapy consultation options. The relevant allergens, available methods and suitability need to be discussed individually.
Can treatment be completed in one visit?
There is no single schedule for every patient. Some care plans require repeat visits or ongoing monitoring. Ask about the likely arrangements before booking travel.
Can you guarantee a particular result?
No specific treatment outcome can be guaranteed. Your doctor will discuss the options, expected aims, practical requirements and limitations relevant to your individual situation.
Before travelling and during follow-up
Online Consultations
Can I have an online consultation before travelling to Istanbul?
Yes. Contact our team to request an online appointment and confirm availability, the fee, time zone and connection arrangements. An in-person examination or testing may still be recommended.
Which platform is used and how long will the appointment last?
Our team will confirm the connection method and planned duration when booking. Follow the joining instructions provided for your appointment.
What should I prepare for an online consultation?
Have previous reports, a current medication list and your main questions ready. Choose a quiet, private place and check your internet connection, camera and microphone.
Can every concern be managed online?
No. What can be assessed remotely depends on the concern and information available. Your doctor may recommend an examination, tests or local in-person assessment. A prescription or specific treatment is not guaranteed by booking an online appointment.
Can I have online follow-up after returning home?
Ask your doctor whether online follow-up is appropriate. Some assessments or treatments still require clinic visits or care with a healthcare professional where you live.
Travel planning and clinic arrival
Visiting Istanbul
Should I contact the clinic before booking flights?
Yes. Confirm appointment availability, location and preparation requirements first. The time needed may depend on investigations or repeat appointments.
How many days should I stay in Istanbul?
The required time varies with the assessment and proposed care plan. Ask about expected scheduling, result timing and possible additional visits before choosing travel dates.
