Shoulder surgery in Warsaw - hairdresser with 30 years of repetitive strain! Was petrified about how it'd affect my work but surgeon actually had my salon chair shipped to physio room to practice real-life movements. Sound mad? Best decision ever. Three months later, back to full-time styling without pain.

Former chef, 55, had gastric sleeve in Istanbul. Their nutritionist actually worked with my dietary quirks instead of standard plan. Even helped adapt favourite recipes for post-surgery life! Hospital food was shockingly good (first time I've ever said that).

Double hip replacement at 52 - youngest in family to need it (thanks, genetics!). Chose Krakow after watching surgeon's research presentations online. Used some minimally invasive technique that meant super quick recovery. Fascinating watching physios use anti-gravity treadmill during rehab - felt like astronaut training! Back to cycling with kids 3 months later.

Thera made the whole process very straightforward and I am extremely grateful. I received quality care in a comfortable setting at a reasonable cost.

Needed full knee revision but UK quotes were eye-watering. Found specialist sports clinic in Vilnius through Thera. They actually had pro athletes recovering there - bit surreal doing physio next to Lithuanian basketball team!

Professional pianist, 47, couldn't wait for NHS carpal tunnel surgery. Ended up in Budapest - their hand specialist worked with orchestra musicians! Used some ultrasound technique not available on NHS. Back performing within 8 weeks, no issues since.

Shoulder and rotator cuff repair in Kaunas, 63. NHS said 'live with it' but am professional gardener - not an option! Their team amazingly thorough - did genetic testing to check healing capacity before surgery. Used platelet-rich plasma therapy during recovery. Even had ergonomic assessment for my work tools. Saved my business and got full range of movement back.

Selected a centre of excellence in Krakow for bilateral hip replacements based on their surgical volume and outcomes data. The facility's dedication to arthroplasty was evident in their specialised equipment and rehabilitation facilities. At 71, I particularly appreciated their geriatric-specific protocols and attention to preventing post-operative complications. Their use of enhanced recovery techniques enabled discharge to the partner hotel within three days.
Kelly Maiden
United Kingdom
As a retired medical administrator, I thoroughly researched options for my knee replacement. Selected a facility in Warsaw based on their impressive surgical outcomes data. The entire process was remarkably efficient - from initial consultation to post-operative care. Their computer-assisted surgery techniques and comprehensive rehabilitation programme delivered excellent results.
Karen Light

Spinal fusion in Warsaw at 54. Huge decision but NHS wait was making me depressed. Their neurosurgery unit was like something from sci-fi - robot-assisted surgery, 3D navigation system, even virtual reality planning. Had my own physio and pain specialist assigned for whole stay. Walking tall again after years of being bent over.

Following considerable research and multiple UK consultations, I opted for spinal fusion surgery in Kaunas. Their neurosurgical unit employs advanced navigation systems and intraoperative monitoring equipment that surpassed anything offered locally. The consultant provided detailed explanations of the procedure and recovery protocol. Currently six months post-surgery, my mobility has improved significantly.
Iain McNeil
United Kingdom
Having previously undergone orthopaedic surgery privately in the UK, I can make a direct comparison with my recent shoulder replacement in Vilnius. The Lithuanian facility demonstrated superior efficiency in their pathway management and rehabilitation protocols. Their integrated approach to post-operative care, including immediate physiotherapy and comprehensive pain management, facilitated a notably smoother recovery.
Keith Miller
United Kingdom
My decision to pursue rotator cuff repair in Istanbul was influenced by their sports medicine expertise and advanced arthroscopic equipment. The surgical team's experience with professional athletes was evident in their approach to rehabilitation. Their systematic protocol, including platelet-rich plasma therapy and focused physiotherapy, has resulted in excellent shoulder function. The entire process was remarkably well-coordinated.
