The full range of procedures is available, including joint replacement surgery, joint resurfacing, arthroscopic investigations and treatments, ligament and tendon repair, treatments for back pain and sciatica, and nerve decompression. Prices for orthopaedic treatment abroad are generally much lower than they would be at home and waiting times are negligible.
