The data controller responsible in respect of the information collected on this website is Annomo Health Africa.

We do not store credit card details nor do we share customer financial details with any third parties.

Please note that from time to time there may be delays with the processing of card payments and transactions; this may result in payments taking up to ten (10) working days (excluding bank/public holidays) to be deducted from your bank account or charged to your credit or debit card.

Annomo Health Africa prides itself in the efficient delivery of its service. We aim to deliver services within the following relevant timeframes, however these may at times subject to minor delays due to consultant schedules, weekends or bank/public holidays and other commitments outside our control. We will advise you on suggested lead times in such circumstances.

E-consultations: upon receipt of payment, we aim for the delivery of the report from the nominated consultant within 2 working hours (this excludes weekends and bank/public holidays).

Face-to face consultations: delivery of this service will be as per the prior agreed arrangement with the client upon confirmation of membership status, receipt of Guarantee of Payment from the third party for sponsored patients or full pre-payment by self-pay patients. For self-pay patients, as detailed in our T&C’s it is agreed that the provision of any services is subject to payment in full of any costs relating to consultation, administrative, surgical care. Failure to pre-authorise or receive full payment is likely to result in the services not being delivered (including the confirmation of an appointment time and date and issue of “Confirmation to Treat” letter).

For face to face consultations and video consultations we operate a 48-hour refund policy, whereby a full refund will be granted if notice of cancellation/rescheduling is given to us within 48-hours ahead of the booked service. Any cancellations or ‘no-shows’ for appointments within the 48 hours of service is liable for the full professional fee of consultation or procedure.

Under exceptional circumstances will cancellation fees be voided. If you think you are due a refund, please contact us as soon as possible providing full details of the consultation. Please note we do not provide refunds where the doctor is not at fault.

For e-consultations, with exception for video consultations, we operate a full refund policy so long as the medical report was not generated by our doctor.

Please note refunds can take up to 28 working days excluding weekends and bank/public holidays.

Circumstances outside our control- Neither Annomo Health Africa, nor its doctors or employees, shall be responsible if the supply of the services is delayed or prevented by circumstances outside its control. If this happens we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimize the effect of the delay or failure to deliver the service. If there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to cancel any booked services and receive a full refund for any services you have paid for but not received yet. However, Annomo Health Africa will do the utmost to ensure cancellations are avoided and services are received.

Annomo Health Africa aims to keep the client informed of all treatment costs throughout the patient’s treatment pathway. For face to face consultations an initial quote is presented in the ‘Treatment Offer Letter’ for non-members, however quotes for services may change if the patient’s assumed diagnosis turns out to be different from or more complicated than that originally quoted for. This only applies to members who has used up their complimentary consultations for the year or who require additional services outside their membership tiers. Prices are subject to change without prior notice and prices of consultations, procedures and investigations may vary depending on type required.

In the event a patient has been quoted a higher cost of service than required or if the initial anticipated treatment is not advised for medical reasons and pre-payment has been made, the difference in cost will be refunded.

Some prices will be published on the website but Annomo Health Africa will be able to advise where known, of other anticipated costs. Prices listed are for guidance only, and subject to variation depending upon the services provided.

All consultation fees must be paid for prior to an initial consultation for non-members.

There may also be additional charges made by the third parties after the consultation, which may for example include the cost of medication at a pharmacy, an investigation at a private, hospital or clinic. You should seek advice on these changes direct from the third party.

All professional fees are exempt from VAT unless otherwise specified.

No payment will be deemed to have been received until Annomo Health Africa has received the payment in full in cleared funds.
