Why choose PlanetHospital for orthopaedic surgery abroad?
PlanetHospital makes medical tourism safe, easy and affordable. Established in 2002, they were one of the very first organisations to put patients in touch with medical practitioners abroad, and they have helped thousands of people with their medical tourism needs, including services such as orthopaedic surgery, cancer treatment, cosmetic, obesity, heart and elective surgery, dentistry, fertility treatment and organ transplants. PlanetHospital started quite by accident in 2002, when the original founder was visiting Bangkok and became sick with a pre-existing condition. She was pleasantly surprised by the outstanding medical care she received in Thailand. A dedicated private nurse, bespoke catering and excellent treatment for a fraction of the cost back home.
