What the doctor will need from you
So there are no surprises. This is the usual list for this treatment.
Before you travel
Things to gather at home. Photographs of documents are fine — they do not need to be originals.
- MRI of the joint, if you have had one
This is the single most useful thing you can send. Ligaments, cartilage and tendons only show on MRI, and for a knee or a shoulder it usually decides the operation before you travel. Bring the disc or the file, not only the written report.
- X-rays of the joint
Shows the bone and the joint space. For a hip or knee replacement it is what the size of the implant is planned from.
- Reports from any previous surgery or treatmentIf you have it
What was done before decides what can be done now. Photographs of the reports are fine.
- A list of every medicine you take
Blood thinners, diabetes medicine and some supplements change how the operation is planned, and a few have to be paused beforehand.
After you arrive in Türkiye
The hospital does these. They are included in your package and usually take one morning.
- Examination of the joint
The surgeon moves and tests the joint themselves. Scans show structure; only examination shows how it behaves.
- Standing X-rays
Taken with your weight on the joint, which shows the true gap. A lying-down X-ray can look far better than the joint really is.
- Blood tests
A blood count, clotting profile, blood sugar, and screening for hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. Standard before any operation, and usually done the morning you arrive.
- Heart trace (ECG)
Routine for anyone over forty or with a heart history, and quick to do.
- Anaesthesia assessment
The anaesthetist meets you before the operation to check your heart, chest and medicines, and to agree the plan with the surgeon.
What the doctor will ask you
Worth thinking about before the consultation. Clear answers here save a day.
- How did it start — an injury, or gradually over time?
- How long have you had the pain?
- Which movement hurts, and what can you no longer do?
- Does it lock, give way, or swell?
- Have you had injections, physiotherapy or surgery on it?
- How far can you walk before you have to stop?
- What does your work ask of this joint?
- Is any other joint affected?
You do not have to do this alone
Every patient is different. Once the doctor has read your file they may ask for one or two more things before confirming your plan — that is normal, and it is a sign your case is being looked at properly rather than waved through. If it happens, we tell you exactly what is needed and why, and you will see it added to this list.
If you cannot get a test at home, tell us. Most of them can be done in Türkiye instead, and we will arrange it.
