International Patient Appointments

The first step in referring a patient to a Memorial Sloan Kettering doctor is to submit an online appointment request form to our Bobst International Center. Please make sure you have your patient’s pathology and radiology test results on hand to provide the most accurate and complete information possible. Doing so will help us to expedite your requested services.

Once you have submitted the form, one of our care advisors will reach out to the preferred contact person within one to two business days.

To speak with someone about your patient, you can also call 212-639-4900, Mon–Fri, 9:00 am–5:00 pm, ET.
