Orthopedics is the branch of medicine dealing with the skeletal system. Orthopedic surgery may range from hand reconstruction to full joint replacements such as knees and hips.
The orthopedic surgeon is also skilled at using foreign materials such as pins and screws to hold bones to their proper alignment. With members of the ‘Baby Boomer’ generation now reaching their mid 60’s, the need for orthopedic surgery in North America is rising dramatically, especially with the large number of uninsured in the United States and with long wait times in Canada which can reach several years.
Traveling for knee replacements, hip replacements, and hip resurfacing procedures is one of the most common areas of medical travel.
One of the biggest misconceptions of traveling out of the country for an orthopedic procedure is that somehow the level of care will be less than you would receive at home. This couldn’t be further from the truth. It is important to remember that these are the top orthopedic hospitals in major metropolitan centers which attract the countries’ top surgeons. Most are affiliated with world renowned medical institutions like Johns Hopkins.
In fact, medical care in our private hospitals is of the highest quality with state-of-the-art facilities and doctors using the latest techniques. Most of our board certified surgeons have trained in international centers around the world and have a steady stream of American and Canadian patients due to positive word of mouth.

If you are uninsured or under-insured, you may not be able or want to afford the high cost of surgery in the United States. A hip or knee replacement can easily cost $50,000 or more if you have to pay out-of-pocket. It is a well known fact that medical bills are one of the single biggest sources of personal bankruptcy in The United States. For Canadians, joint replacement surgery is notorious for its long wait times, and many would rather pay to have their procedure done immediately than wait and endure a lower quality of life. Typically our clients are looking for 3 things: Affordability; Quality; Safety.
Even after travel, accommodation, and physiotherapy, you can easily save up tom 80%, or tens-of-thousands of dollars. For most, that is money better spent.
