Hip replacement abroad

HI

I am on an nhs wIting list for hip replacement.

With long waiting times i am looking at nordorthopaedics in lithuania for surgery. Has anyone else used them or have any feedback?

I would normally wait but at 55 with 2 kids I am keen to keep up with them!

Thx for considering

Good morning @Rachelmbn

Welcome to the online Community.

I see you are on the waiting list for a hip replacement and are struggling with the long waiting time. You are now considering going abroad for treatment.

This thread from last year may be of interest to you:

I think others have had their surgery privately in this country which would have the obvious advantage of no language barrier and NHS services nearby in the event of any complications.

Best wishes

Ellen.
