Prepare your medical records for an Indian specialist consultation
A well-organised medical history can make an international specialist consultation more useful. KRVF gives UK patients a secure way to share relevant records before their consultation so the physician can review the available information.
- Indian specialist consultation coordinated by KRVF
- Secure sharing of medical records and scans
- Clearer treatment planning before travel
- International patient coordination from enquiry to next steps
- Review of submitted medical information
- Consultation coordinated with an appropriate Indian physician
- Written consultation outcome where included in the physician service
- Secure patient portal for documents and updates
KRVF coordinates the international patient journey; clinical decisions remain with qualified healthcare professionals.
What to gather before your consultation
Diagnosis and referral letters
Recent notes, referral letters or summaries from your doctor or specialist.
Imaging
X-rays, MRI, CT or other relevant scans, preferably with the corresponding report.
Medication history
Current medicines, doses and relevant allergies or previous reactions.
Previous treatment
Operations, injections, physiotherapy, rehabilitation or other treatment already tried.
Make the story easy to understand
Start with what is bothering you now, when it began, what has changed and what your current doctor has recommended. Include previous diagnoses and the treatments you have already tried.
If you have multiple reports, label them clearly by date. This can make it easier for the reviewing physician to understand the sequence of events.
Use KRVF to organise the consultation
After you register, relevant documents can be uploaded through the secure patient journey. KRVF can then coordinate the appropriate physician consultation and communicate the next steps.
Do not upload information that is unrelated to your case. If a document is unclear or incomplete, the care team can advise what additional information is needed.
Start with your case, not a generic package.
Share your medical history and what you are hoping to achieve. KRVF can coordinate the appropriate physician consultation and explain the practical next steps.

Questions UK patients often ask.
Should I translate my records?
If your records are in English, translation is generally not needed for an English-language consultation. If documents are in another language, ask KRVF what format is most useful.
Can I upload scans from my phone?
Use the secure patient portal to upload the relevant files in the formats accepted by the system.
What if I do not have all my records?
Start with what you have. The physician can identify any important gaps during the review.
