Suffering
from Knee Osteoarthritis?
Don’t
want to wait years on a waiting list to have a replacement or treatment?
We
have a solution for you…
You
can have your treatment overseas with no waiting time, and at a much more
affordable cost!
Our
knees are very fragile, and are constantly strained through walking, running
and physical activity over time. In most cases, a knee injury is caused as a result
of an active lifestyle, which is not only physically degenerating, but also
emotionally straining on the individual. The damaged cartilage around the knee deteriorates
and causes painful osteoarthritis, making it very difficult to carry out a
normal life.
Some
symptoms of knee arthritis can be maintained and improved through exercise or
medication, however this is not always a permanent solution. One solution is a
Knee Replacement.
A
knee reconstruction involves an operation in which the damaged/diseased joint
of the knee are removed and replaced with a prosthesis (artificial) joint.
If
you’re familiar with hospitals in Australia, many patients who need procedures
such as a knee replacement find themselves on a waiting list for years! Now
this can be extremely debilitating to live a normal life with constant pain,
and sometimes inability to walk.
Luckily,
you have the option to get your life back to normal quicker and at a more
affordable price – have a knee reconstruction surgery overseas!
By
having MTM organise your surgery overseas, you have access to the world’s
number one multi-disciplinary medical centre for medical tourists, which
specialises in Orthopaedics – Prince Court Medical Centre, and access to the
most experienced surgeons in the world. They are one of the very few hospitals
in the world which specialise in multiple ligament injury for knee, ankle and
shoulder reconstructions.
In
the past, this procedure involved cutting into the whole joint, which could
sometimes cause damage to the healthy joint and surrounding tissue. The
advanced technology at Prince Court allows for a knee reconstruction to be
carried out through Arthroscopy (Keyhole surgery), and is monitored via camera.
Having
your surgery through MTM means you avoid the waiting time. The savings in cost
are equally appealing, where a Knee Reconstruction in Australia typically costs
around $25,000 AUD, in Malaysia the procedure is between $8,000 and $15,000
AUD, which allows you to save up to 67%.
Patients
are finding that having knee replacement overseas allows them to get back to
their normal active lives much faster, and MTM have a rehabilitation program in
Australia to help you recover and get active sooner.
If
you need a Knee Reconstruction, and want to save time spent on waiting lists,
and money – call MTM on 1300 882 672 and speak to our consultants!
