A diagnosis name alone cannot establish whether surgery or another procedure is appropriate.3 min read](https://childmedcare.com/resources/congenital-heart-disease-specialist-review-questions/) COMMON QUESTIONS ## Frequently asked questions. ### Can you tell us whether our child needs surgery? No. Decisions about surgery, investigations or other treatment require assessment by the hospital’s clinical team. Our role is to help coordinate your inquiry. ### Can we get a confirmed price or appointment online? The hospital must confirm clinical suitability, appointments and any cost estimate. An inquiry through this site does not confirm a booking. ### Do we need to send medical records now? No. Start with a brief non-sensitive inquiry. If records are needed later, ask the coordinator about the appropriate submission channel. RELATED SERVICES ## Other services.
