Order, shipping and delivery Information FAQ

1. Where are orders dispatched from, and when are they dispatched?

All orders are dispatched from Greece, Europe either on the same day or the next day. We try to dispatch any order placed before 13:00 GMT+2 on the same day, although this may depend on daily order volumes and other factors. Please keep in mind that any orders placed on a Saturday, Sunday, or a public holiday will be processed on the following Monday or the next working day. During sales and promotional periods, delivery times may be slightly longer than normal.

2. What are the delivery times for orders within the European Union?

Most orders placed within the EU are delivered the next day. However, delivery times can be affected by external factors, so while next-day delivery is typical, it cannot be guaranteed.

3. What are the estimated delivery times for express and standard shipping?

For express shipping, delivery times in Europe are 1 to 2 days, while delivery to the rest of the world typically takes 3 to 8 days. Standard shipping usually ranges from 4 to 8 days, depending on the destination.

4. What Are The Delivery Costs?

We offer FREE EU SHIPPING for orders over 80€ with UPS Standard (terms and conditions apply). For other regions delivery costs range from 8 euros for standard shipping, to 16 - 24 euros for express shipping. Though, delivery costs depend on the destination (if you live in a non-EU country) and the shipping option chosen. Exact shipping fees are calculated at checkout.

5. What are the delivery times for orders shipped to the rest of the world?

We ship our products to most countries worldwide. Delivery times outside Europe typically range from 3 to 8 days or more, depending on the destination. Please note that various factors beyond our control may affect these times. For example, while we ship orders on the same day and items often arrive the next day, packages destined for countries outside Europe might be held at customs for up to 5 additional days, resulting in a longer overall delivery time.

6. Do I get any confirmation when I place an order?

After placing an order, you will receive an order confirmation email. This email will provide a summary of your order, including the items purchased, shipping method etc

7. Are there any customs duties or extra charges for EU customers?

No customs duties are applied to orders within the European Union. However, for deliveries outside the EU, import duties, taxes, and additional charges may apply and are the buyer’s responsibility.

8. What factors can affect delivery times?

Delivery times may be influenced by external factors such as national holidays, strikes, extreme weather conditions, pandemics, customs clearances, and other circumstances beyond our control.

9. Will I receive all the items of my order in one package?

On rare occasions, some items may be shipped separately from our warehouses in Europe. As a result, you might receive multiple packages with different tracking numbers. Please note that this can only occur if we first receive your confirmation.

10. Will I get any confirmation when my order is shipped?

You will receive a shipping confirmation email once your order is dispatched from either warehouse. This email will contain information about which items have been shipped, their tracking numbers, and an estimated delivery time.

You can track your shipment in real time by logging into your account and navigating to the "My Account > Orders" section, where you’ll find your order’s tracking information.

Proper cleaning and maintenance of medical devices are crucial for their longevity and effectiveness. For stethoscopes, it's recommended to clean them between patient exams using a 70% isopropyl alcohol wipe or a disposable wipe with soap and water. Ensure all parts and surfaces are dry before reassembly. We recommend to avoid using hand sanitisers to clean stethoscopes, as additives might harm the tubing and other components.

Always refer to the manufacturer's guidelines for specific cleaning and maintenance instructions for each device.
