Virtual consultations

Consultations for Calgary and Alberta patients are currently virtual only. Share your symptoms, medical records, and available imaging so a Pathway surgeon can assess your case.

Facility clarity: a virtual consultation does not determine where surgery happens. The surgeon, surgical location, and any travel requirements are confirmed after clinical review and before you accept a quote.

Confirm the plan

If surgery is recommended, Pathway confirms the procedure, proposed facility, scheduling, travel plan, and written quote before you decide.

Recovery

Questions

Calgary patients ask

Consultations for Calgary and Alberta patients are currently virtual only. If surgery is recommended, Pathway confirms the surgeon, surgical location, travel requirements, and written quote after clinical review and before you book.
Not automatically. Alberta says coverage for elective out-of-province care may be limited. At a private facility, the patient is responsible for facility fees and for physician charges above the AHCIP-covered amount. Confirm coverage with AHCIP and the treating facility before booking if reimbursement matters to your decision.
Often, yes. The surgeon determines the clinical follow-up plan, while Pathway helps organize records, discharge instructions, and communication with local providers. Confirm the local physiotherapy and urgent-care plan before travelling for surgery.
