Specialist urology care in Brisbane, Australia
Travelling overseas for medical treatment requires careful planning. Our aim is to make your pathway as clear as possible before you decide to travel to Australia.
Dr Jack Crozier provides subspecialist assessment and surgical care across male reproductive, penile, reconstructive and neuro-urology. Where appropriate, much of your initial assessment and planning can begin before you travel.
Start before you travel
Send your diagnosis, previous treatment history and relevant medical records so the appropriate next step can be considered before you arrange travel.
Plan the pathway
Where appropriate, consultation, investigations, treatment and early follow-up can be planned around your proposed visit to Brisbane.
Plan follow-up home
Follow-up can be planned with your local urologist, fertility team, general practitioner or other treating specialists where appropriate.
Care designed around patients travelling to Australia
International treatment involves more planning than a standard local appointment. The objective is to clarify as much as reasonably possible before you make major travel arrangements.
Review before travel
Relevant medical reports, investigations, imaging and previous operative information can be reviewed as part of your assessment.
Telehealth where suitable
Where clinically appropriate and permitted, an initial consultation may be possible before travelling to Brisbane.
Complete appropriate testing locally
Some blood tests, semen analyses, imaging or other investigations may be able to be performed in your home country before travelling.
Coordinate your Brisbane visit
Where possible, appointments and treatment can be planned to reduce unnecessary trips and clarify the expected duration of your stay.
Plan your return home
Follow-up requirements can be discussed before departure, including whether ongoing care can occur locally or by telehealth.

Your international patient pathway
The exact pathway varies depending on your diagnosis and proposed treatment, but international care will generally follow these stages.
Send an international patient enquiry
Tell us your main diagnosis or concern, where you live, what treatment you have already received, any previous surgery and when you are considering travelling.
Provide relevant medical information
Depending on your condition, this may include specialist letters, imaging, pathology, previous operation reports, blood tests or semen analyses.
Initial consultation
Where clinically appropriate and permitted, an initial consultation may occur by telehealth. Some conditions will still require examination or further investigations before treatment is confirmed.

If treatment is appropriate, consultation, investigations, surgery and early follow-up can be coordinated around your proposed visit where reasonably possible.

Follow-up after returning home
Where appropriate, ongoing care can be coordinated with your local urologist, fertility specialist, IVF clinic or general practitioner, with telehealth follow-up where suitable.
Plan your medical pathway before your flights
We recommend completing the appropriate assessment and discussing your proposed treatment pathway before making major non-refundable travel arrangements.
The required stay varies substantially between procedures and should be discussed before flights are booked.
Where appropriate, selected investigations may be completed in your home country before travelling.
Sometimes. This depends on your diagnosis, examination, investigations and the treatment being considered.
A partner, family member or support person may be advisable for many surgical procedures.
What should I send?
You do not need every document before contacting the practice. However, the following information can make the initial assessment more efficient when it is available.
Coming to Brisbane
Brisbane is the capital of Queensland, Australia. When planning treatment, you should allow sufficient time for your consultation, any required investigations, treatment and early postoperative review.
Your clinical team can advise you regarding the medical component of the expected stay and when return travel may be appropriate.
Patients remain responsible for arranging their own flights, accommodation, visas, travel insurance and other travel requirements.
International patient FAQs
Can I speak with Dr Crozier before travelling?
Where clinically appropriate and permitted, an initial telehealth consultation may be possible. Some conditions still require physical examination or further testing before a definitive treatment recommendation can be made.
I know which operation I want. Can I book surgery directly?
Appropriate consultation and clinical assessment are still required. The operation you have researched may not necessarily be the most appropriate treatment for your individual circumstances.
Can my overseas scans and test results be reviewed?
Existing investigations can often form part of your assessment. Additional or repeat investigations may sometimes be required depending on their type, timing and clinical relevance.
Can you work with my doctor in my home country?
Where appropriate, ongoing care can be coordinated with your local urologist, fertility specialist, IVF clinic or general practitioner.
How long will I need to stay in Australia?
This depends on the procedure, your health and your recovery. The expected postoperative stay should be discussed before return flights are booked.
When can I fly after surgery?
There is no single timeframe that applies to every operation. Advice depends on the procedure, your recovery and individual clinical considerations.
What happens if I have a problem after returning home?
Your follow-up pathway should be established before departure. Depending on the circumstances, care may involve telehealth and assessment by an appropriate doctor in your home country. Urgent postoperative problems may require immediate local medical care.
Can my partner attend my consultation?
Yes. Partners are particularly welcome during fertility, erectile dysfunction and penile surgery consultations when the patient would like them involved.
Can surgery guarantee the outcome I want?
No. All surgery has potential benefits, limitations and risks, and outcomes vary between patients. These issues are discussed during assessment and informed consent before treatment.
Considering travelling to Brisbane for treatment?
You do not need to organise your entire trip before contacting the practice. Start by telling us your condition, country of residence, previous treatment and the care you are seeking.
