“I’m a postman, so I do a lot of walking. About a year and a half ago, I started getting serious pain in my knee. It got worse and worse, and I just couldn’t ignore it anymore. I went to the HSE to get on the waiting list, but it was just taking too long.Then I heard through word of mouth about Healthcare Abroad. A local lad told me about it—he was after getting treatment himself and couldn’t speak highly enough. So I looked into it and made the call. Best decision I’ve made.”
“The team arranged everything—from GP referral to accommodation. All I had to do was book the flights. The hotel was brilliant, right near the hospital, which made everything easy. The care I got here was second to none. The hospital was calm, never overcrowded, and the staff were top class. I was nervous going in for surgery, but they looked after me like I was family.”
“I had physio twice a day after the operation. That really made the difference. I’ve been walking better every day. Jenna, one of the physios, was amazing—always smiling, always encouraging. Now that I’ve got my knee surgery done I’m looking forward to getting back to the mountains. I’ve my eye on the Sugarloaf next. It’s a bit of a climb, but I’ll start small and build back up. I just want to be active again.”
“If you’re waiting and in pain, don’t put your life on hold. I’d 100% recommend Healthcare Abroad.”
