More Americans are in need of hip and/or knee replacement surgery at a time when costs have soared and insurance companies have in some cases denied coverage for such surgery leaving persons to suffer while they try to find an affordable solution. At a time when prices have reached record highs and no reasonable solutions are being proposed, First Care Colombia has taken the medical community by surprise, offering More Care Less Cost in a variety of orthopedic procedures including hip/knee replacement surgery. Be wary of prices that are not all inclusive. More often than not price quotes for most orthopedic procedures include only surgeon fees and do not include other (often expensive) items such as anesthesiology and hospital costs. Our price of $8000 includes all of the fees and hospital cost associated with knee/hip replacement surgery.
In the United States, hip replacement surgery prices vary widely and can be as much as $60,000 in some locations. Our goal is to provide you with one low (all inclusive price) thereby taking the surprise out of your knee/hip replacement surgery budget.
Additionally, travel costs to Colombia are significantly cheaper over other medical tourism destinations with none of the visa or travel restrictions imposed by those other destinations.
Perhaps, the reason many persons have been traveling to Colombia for many years for knee/hip replacement surgery is because of the quality of care. The fact that our affiliated clinics use only FDA approved prosthetics such as Johnson & Johnson, Wright, Zimmer and Smith & Nephew. The name-brand quality of such prosthetics ensures the long term success of your knee/hip replacement surgery. Our affiliated clinics have a selection of highly skilled orthopedic surgeons some of whom have trained outside of Colombia either in Europe or the United States. Some of the other procedures offered by our affiliated clinics are shown below and described in detail.
