Administrative formalities

We do our utmost to make your administrative formalities straightforward. On arrival, the receptionist will tell you which dedicated team will help you with these formalities.

The Central Admissions Office, a dedicated service, will receive you and create your medical file. It is located on the ground floor and is open from 7:45 to 18:00 Monday to Friday. 

The Admissions Office will give you a patient identification card that includes your file number. It will be requested every time you come back to the Institute (as an outpatient or to be hospitalized).

You can request the non-disclosure of your presence at the Institute and ask not to receive any phone calls.
