Surgery and private hospital treatment in Norway

Norway consists of the western and northern section of the Scandinavian peninsula, as well as the arctic island archipelago Svalbard plus Jan Mayen. To the east of Norway lies Sweden, Finland and Russia. To the west, the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. To the north is the Barents Sea, to the south, the North Sea.

Its stunning landscape has been developed over thousands of years - snow capped mountains descend into deep blue fjords and green forests stretch to its long, rugged coastline. Roads thread their way through an enchanting landscape - from Lindesnes in the south to Finmark in the north.

Museums and historical sites throughout Norway contribute to spreading Norwegian culture to visitors through attractions such as the Vigeland's Park, the Viking ships and the Munch museum in Oslo and Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim.

Norway has extensive health services and is promoting their orthopaedic and eye surgery services - knee surgery, hip surgery, shoulder surgery and cataract surgery as an extremely cost effective alternative to orthopaedic and eye surgery in the UK.
