A virtual consultation is a convenient and structured way to receive Dr. Escobar’s professional opinion before traveling or scheduling an in-person visit.

This option is especially useful for patients who live outside Madrid or abroad, as well as for those who would like an initial expert assessment before taking the next step.

During the consultation, Dr. Escobar will review your concerns, discuss your goals, and guide you through the most appropriate options based on your case.

A virtual consultation may be appropriate for patients seeking:

• A professional opinion before traveling
• An initial discussion about rhinoplasty (primary or revision)
• Guidance regarding functional nasal concerns
• A second opinion
• Clarification about treatment options and next steps

Your virtual consultation with Dr. Escobar (approximately 30 minutes) may include:

• Review of your main concerns and goals
• Discussion of relevant medical and surgical history
• Initial assessment based on your submitted information and images
• Explanation of possible treatment pathways
• Guidance on whether the next step should be:
  • an in-person consultation, or
  • a virtual follow-up / further assessment, when appropriate
• Time to ask questions and discuss your concerns

When relevant, Dr. Escobar may use visual references (clinical examples, illustrations, or educational materials) to help explain options more clearly.

A virtual consultation is an excellent first step, but it does not replace a full in-person physical examination when this is required for diagnosis, final surgical planning, or treatment decisions.

In some cases, additional information may be requested before recommendations can be finalized (for example, photos, prior operative reports, or imaging such as a CT scan when clinically relevant).

To make the most of your consultation, we recommend preparing the following in advance:

• A short summary of your main concerns and goals
• Relevant medical history (if applicable)
• Details of any previous nasal surgery or trauma
• A list of current symptoms (if functional concerns are present)
• Any previous tests, imaging, or reports you may have available
• A list of questions you would like Dr. Escobar to address

Virtual consultations are scheduled according to availability and coordinated by Dr. Escobar’s team. Once your request is received, our team will contact you to arrange a suitable date and time.

To help Dr. Escobar perform a more accurate initial review, we recommend sending a set of clear facial and nasal photographs before your virtual consultation.

Good-quality images help us better understand your anatomy, areas of concern, and any visible asymmetries, and may improve the quality of the consultation—especially for patients traveling from abroad.

Depending on your case, our team may also request:

• Previous operative reports (if you have had prior nasal surgery)
• CT scan or imaging (when clinically relevant)
• A short summary of your symptoms (especially for breathing or functional concerns)

Submitting photos in advance does not replace an in-person examination, but it helps Dr. Escobar provide a more structured and personalized virtual assessment.

After your virtual consultation, our team will guide you on the most appropriate next step based on your case and availability. This may include:
