RightClinic.com is an innovative web site that allows visitors to explore treatment options in the UK and abroad and get a quote from healthcare providers who choose to showcase their hospital or clinic on our site. Visitors can also discuss treatments and get advice from other users in our forums.

Information about the facilities and services on offer by the various healthcare providers is displayed on our website to help visitors make a decision in choosing to have treatment at that clinic. Should they chose to contact a selected healthcare provider, their details will be passed to that provider to allow them to contact the prospective patient directly, to give them a quotation and / or arrange treatment.

Information displayed on the Web site that relates to healthcare providers, is either provided directly by them or published with their permission. Any information written by RightClinic.com is checked and approved by the providers prior to being published online. RightClinic.com does not verify the accuracy of the information about healthcare providers and therefore makes no warranties as to its authenticity, quality, safety or legality.
