Yes. BGN provide English, Chinese, Russian (and perhaps, others) translation / interpretation. They also provide services geared towards international patients such as comfort, guidance, and in many cases direct billing.

What pre-operative assessments are performed?

In general positive, especially with the international patients; many comment on the skilled staff, modern facilities and good outcomes.
