Brain and spine care in Tabriz, planned from wherever you are.
If you live outside Iran, you can send your scans and reports before you travel, so the team knows your situation and what to expect.
Before you travel
Please send what you have. Clear copies are fine to start with.
- MRI and CT images of the brain or spine, on a disc or as image files, with the radiologist's written reports
- Any plain X-rays and, if you had one, a nerve conduction study report
- Reports of earlier visits, injections, physiotherapy or operations, and any hospital discharge notes, including pathology reports if a sample was taken
- A list of the medicines you take now, and your allergies and long-term conditions
Send these through our international support line on WhatsApp or by phone: +989302272111

Practical questions
Do I always need an operation?
No. Many back, neck and disc problems are first managed without surgery. A review of your records helps the doctor say what is likely to be needed, and a final decision is made after examination.
How long would I need to stay in Tabriz?
It depends on whether you need only a consultation or an operation, and on your recovery. The doctor will give an estimate once your records have been reviewed.
Can a companion come with me?
Yes, companions are welcome. The support team can help with their accommodation too.
What about language?
An interpreter can be arranged if you need one. Please tell us your language when you contact us.
How do I pay?
Payment details are explained with your plan, before you decide to travel.
What number do I call in an emergency?
115 is Iran's emergency number. It works only while you are in Iran. From abroad, use your local emergency number. Signs such as sudden severe headache, a seizure, weakness on one side, or loss of bladder or bowel control do not wait for a remote review.
Every patient's treatment plan is different; ask your doctor about your own situation.
