Orthopedics & spine

Spine surgery & complex revision

For spinal stenosis, deformity or a further opinion after previous spine surgery.

What we help you clarify

  1. 01

    Match the imaging findings with symptoms and previous treatment.

  2. 02

    Ask about non-surgical care, decompression, reconstruction or revision where relevant.

  3. 03

    Plan for rehabilitation, assistance and follow-up after returning home.

The surgical team explains benefits, risks and alternatives based on the examination and images.

Records to have ready

After agreeing the services, we help prepare these for the hospital. You can start the first conversation without uploading a complete file.

  • MRI/CT and standing X-rays if already available
  • Previous surgical report and implant information
  • Description of symptoms, walking ability and previous treatments

Send original scan files when requested. Reports are translated; the images remain in their original diagnostic format.

How we prepare your records

Cost and time away from home

A relatively short hospital stay can be followed by weeks of recovery. A complex revision needs its own estimate; it should not use the timetable for a simple decompression.

Items to include in the estimate

  • Assessment and imaging
  • Procedure, implants and hospital stay
  • Rehabilitation and follow-up
