- Get a written quoteSend the clinic your referral or reason for a health check-up and ask for an itemised price in writing, with the date and what happens if the result needs follow-up.
- Before you goMost packages need you to fast from the night before. Book a morning slot.
- Before you goAsk what happens if a test finds something: is a specialist available the same week, and at what price?
- Entry rulesCheck the official advice before booking: Canadian citizens (travel.gc.ca).
- LanguageSpanish; border clinics that serve US patients usually work in English.
- After you returnBring the full report to your doctor, not just the summary page.
- After you returnTreat a "borderline" or "follow up" note as a reason to see your doctor, not as a diagnosis.
