Planning your visit
Arrange an accessible stay, walking support and a home rehabilitation handover. The surgeon must advise flight timing and clot prevention; do not assume a brief holiday is sufficient.
GOOD TO KNOW
Frequently Asked Questions
Does an X-ray alone determine surgery?
No. Pain, function, examination and alternatives are considered together.
Is rehabilitation optional?
It is a central part of the recovery plan.
Can I take a long flight soon after surgery?
This needs individual surgeon advice because surgery and immobility increase clot risk.
Who follows me after I return?
Agree a local clinical and rehabilitation handover before departure.
