Alan Fleming – Dublin – Knee Replacement Treatment

Meet Alan Fleming from Dublin, a retired Irish Defense Forces service member. Alan faced debilitating knee pain after years of wear and tear from his active lifestyle, including football, ice hockey and over 33 years in military service. With no medical insurance post-retirement, he struggled to afford treatment until discovering Healthcare Abroad through a friend’s recommendation. Alan underwent successful knee replacement surgery at our Healthcare Abroad hospital in Denia. Now pain-free, Alan is a proud advocate for Healthcare Abroad and says the care and service he received truly made all the difference!

“My old pain has gone. The physiotherapy team at the hospital were outstanding. Everything that could be done for you was done for you. I will be a huge advocate for healthcare Abroad now. I’d have no hesitation in recommending them – they are first-class.”

    I couldn’t believe how straight forward it was to go to Spain with Healthcare Abroad. Everything was made easy for me. Dr Jordy van Rijn could have sent me home again if he wanted to, rather than deal with the fact I had MRSA in the past. He didn’t. He did everything to ensure that there was no reoccurrence.

    In Spain the aftercare programme is what I wanted and I have to say it was second to none. “The team in the Healthcare Abroad Hospital is fantastic. I had 2 physio sessions every day in the week after surgery. The following week I did 2 more sessions per day. “I can’t find the words to describe how amazing the physiotherapists are.

    My GP was delighted with my surgery and blown away by my recovery. I was back doing activities fairly quickly after getting home. My physio was very impressed - getting so many physio sessions in Denia straight after surgery made the difference.
