Hello....has anyone had a hip replacement done here. Could you give your opinion of the hospital .....and price.

Yes - Dr C is excellent....Right around the corner from Ravajev hospital (across from Holiday Inn)....Used the hospital & took a suite = high marks - lots of room for family....Stove, fridge, tv, balcony + big enough for initial steps/walking.....

 

He uses the latest titanium technology from the US...About 3-6 days in the hospital.....Total cost 250,000B.....His quote will also cover the hospital expenses....I opted for the suite expecting to pay a 1,000B day difference but was included...

 

I was off crutches in 2 weeks, but I heal fast (at 4 weeks he said it was like a 3 month post op check).....

 

Opt for crutches if you're physically able - I had them take the flimsy walker back for crutches (walker = recipe for disaster).....

No more pain....Some angles & movement capabilities will change, but that is the nature of this operation......It "feels" a touch different, but no pain or discomfort....Was done at the beginning of Nov 17....

Right now tromping around the US by RV for 7 week holiday & no issues.....

 

 

Try sending a message to Sheryl - she is the medical expert/mod.

 

Also try this from another post:
