Total Knee Replacement 

Total knee replacements are expensive in the US and are even more expensive when you don't have insurance or have poor insurance. Fortunately, you can have a total knee replacement surgery at a country and location overseas that costs fifty to seventy percent off the price you'd pay in the United States. This includes the fact that you'd have to pay for your flight there. The lodging is often included in the price of one of these luxury vacations at sites such as Malaysia, India, the Philippines, Thailand, Costa Rica and Mexico.

How do I book one of these vacations?

Booking one of these vacations is simple. You contact a website like MedPath and they discuss with you which are the best locations for you to go to for a surgery. They help you plan your vacation site and help you arrange your flights to the site. Then you get your medical records together and eventually pack your bags and take off to your exotic vacation!

What happens when I get there?

When you arrive at your destination, you meet up with your personal assistant who will get you a wheelchair if necessary and will translate for you if necessary. You will be escorted to your sumptuous, luxury hotel room where you can relax in your room or get out at relax by the pool or ocean, depending on the site. There is shopping and sightseeing to do if you feel up to it. Your personal assistant will arrange your doctors' appointments with you and will set up surgery for you. You may have just one appointment or you may have more than one appointment and some tests to undergo before you are ready to have surgery.

What about surgery?

Your surgery will be performed by a doctor who is likely world renowned and is board certified in orthopedic surgery. He or she will have done hundreds of the same procedure you are having. All of your questions will be answered before the surgery and you will be transferred to a luxury hospital room at the time of your surgery. You will be then sent to the preoperative section of the hospital and will be prepared for minimally invasive knee surgery. Your surgery will be in an ultra modern, state of the art surgical suite where they use modern anesthesia and modern equipment. Your prosthesis will likely be exactly the same as prosthetics used in the US. After your surgery is over, you will go to the postoperative care area to wake up and be evaluated by nursing staff.

When you are ready, you will be sent back to your luxury hospital room where you will be able to chat with loved ones. You will then begin rehabilitation with physical therapy until you are well enough to go back to your hotel room to continue rehabilitation exercises. Eventually you will be ready to return home with your brand new knee.
