For plastic surgeons
Take surgery deposits from patients abroad without the wire-transfer back and forth
A patient in Houston or Manchester is about to send a large sum to a clinic in another country. They want payment details that look like a normal domestic transfer. You want the full amount, in your currency, matched to the right patient. MedFX handles both sides.

Where the friction is
What gets in the way of a foreign patient's payment
- 01
Large payments make patients hesitate
A deposit of several thousand dollars sent to an unfamiliar foreign account is a hard thing to ask for. A named, local-currency bank account in the patient's own country is a much easier one.
- 02
Wires arrive short
Banks in the middle can take a fee out of an international wire. The amount that lands is then lower than the amount that was sent, and your coordinator is chasing the gap.
- 03
Staff match payments by hand
Screenshots on WhatsApp, partial transfers, two patients with the same surname. Reconciliation falls to whoever is closest to the phone.
A typical booking
From quote to payout
- 1
Quote and reserve
Your coordinator confirms the surgery date and the deposit. We issue payment details for the patient's country and currency.
- 2
Deposit
The patient sends the deposit from their bank. You see it against their reference and can confirm the date with them.
- 3
Balance
The balance can be paid in a second transfer before travel or on arrival. Each transfer is tied to the same patient.
- 4
Payout
Funds land in your bank account in reais, pesos, lira or the local currency you choose.
