Patients coming from other countries to see Dr. Dowden often need special arrangements to make the best use of their time and travel limitations. We have both office and operation facilities located a short taxi ride from Cleveland International Airport. We can provide the patient with documentation that may be required to obtain a visa. We can assist in obtaining translation services where required.
We have patients from almost all of the states in the USA and from a number of other countries, and have systems in place, (including directions, and suggestions for nearby hotels and restaurants) that enable them to have both the nurse consult and the consult with Dr. Dowden during the same visit, which we call "back to back visits".
Sometimes, patients from far away prefer to actually reserve a surgery date in advance of coming to the office for the first time. Depending upon the timing, doing this may involve prepaying the surgical fee before even meeting Dr. Dowden. Although that is quite unusual, we have had over 100 patients from around the world who have done exactly that.
One of our staff nurses assists with coordinating your consults and surgery date, and would be happy to answer any questions.
