Patient Testimonials
Dear all at Surgery Now
I would like to express my appreciation for the outstanding service that you provide. I received a complete hip replacement at IMED hospital in Elche, Alicante, in November 2020 and couldn’t be happier with the result. Everyone of the medical staff that we dealt with was very professional and efficient. I was very grateful for the support of Surgery Now’s Chris and Noel, who went out of their way to be as helpful as possible. I especially appreciate the way my particular medical requirements were respectfully and considerately cared for. Our hotel accommodation at Huerto del Cura was excellent – very clean and comfortable, with friendly and helpful staff and high-quality food. So good that we hope to return for a holiday. I would have no hesitation in recommending Surgery Now’s friendly and caring service to as many people as possible. Keep up the good work!
Thank you again
Best wishes
Tim and Beth Fowler
This company arranged for me to travel to Spain for cataract surgery mid-October 2020.
From my first call to Chris, in Surgery Now, the whole process was truly amazing. He looked after flights, hotel and hospital bookings.
All of my transfers from/to airport hotel and hospital were provided by a very amenable Noel with ultra punctuality and friendliness.
The cataract surgery was carried out on one eye Tuesday and the second eye Wednesday and involved about as much trauma and pain as getting a haircut! For the first time in 60 years I have perfect vision without any glasses. Can’t believe it!
Surgery Now looked after all the paperwork for reclaiming the full cost from the HSE and continued in contact with me after my return home.
I had no increased fear of catching Covid-19 than I do at home in Co Wicklow.
I travelled from Cork to IMED Levantes, Benidorm in July 2020, for the hip replacement surgery accompanied by a Surgery Now representative.
I just have to commend the excellent service they provided to the group of us , 7 from Ireland on that trip, from the start of the application process right through to the flight home .
Surgery Now organised and booked absolutely everything, including the hospital, all transport, our fantastic hotel directly across the road from the amazing hospital. They also sorted all of the paperwork required pre travel.
Chris, from Surgery Now, accompanied me to the hospital both on the day before the operation and checking into the hospital the morning of the surgery.
I was an in-patient for 4 days and a Surgery Now representative popped in each day to see if I needed anything ( including ice -cream! ) and for a chat ! they were very personable friendly and professional and available on mobile 24/7.
The operation was a 100% success and the medical team in the hospital were fantastic. I would highly recommend this hospital and its location.The day before flying back, Surgery Now completed the HSE refund application form with me and made it seamless.
I cannot speak highly enough of Surgery Now for their professionalism, efficiency and responsiveness.
For anybody considering surgery abroad with Surgery Now , I would strongly recommend doing so, you are guaranteed top class service from start to finish.

I want to express my gratitude for all your help & advice the past few weeks. I actually still can’t believe how efficient & quick the entire process has been. I have been telling everyone I know, about Surgery Now. Like me, they can’t believe that, within a week of our initial contact, you arranged surgery for my hands to be done in Spain the following week! You are an absolute Godsend. I really couldn’t have coped too much longer with the chronic pain my carpal tunnel was causing me. And I can’t even explain how marvellous it is to finally have relief from that pain & to be able to sleep through the night! If my recovery is as good as the service Surgery Now have provided well, then I’ll really be a happy camper! I want you to know that, I have been highly recommending your company & will continue to do so. Professional, Efficient, Trustworthy & totally Competent are only some of the words I’ve used to describe my experience through the process. I can’t thank you enough. I only hope that, more people learn about your company & the AMAZING services you provide. It’s absolutely ludicrous for people who need medical attention and/or surgery to have to wait for insane lengths of time on waiting lists in this country when there’s an alternative. My blessing was being told about Surgery Now. I Just can’t thank you enough!
“I was in awful pain for 3 years and was waiting 2 years for a appointment with consultant.
In January I travelled to the IMED Elche hospital in Spain had the op there. The hospital is like a 5 star hotel and aftercare is second to none. I was recovered enough to move to Spain in April and have opened a gallery and bought a house in the last year, so I’m a new man thanks to the surgery and the speed of the whole process.”
“I’m extremely grateful for the assistance I had from the very beginning when we started planning my surgery in Portugal. Very efficient staff and organisation. For somebody who is in pain I can say I felt a huge relief when everything was sorted very fast. Once I was in Portugal, they had a transfer organised waiting for me at the airport and the hospital and the staff were incredible.
I’m very glad I had this opportunity to have my surgery done abroad with so much efficiency and I thank Surgery Now for all the support.”
“I had a complicated knee replacement performed in St. Joseph’s Hospital, Wales, in November 2018. I flew into Bristol from Dublin where I was met by private taxi and brought straight to St. Joseph’s. The consultation was at 3 pm on the same day and the operation was carried out at 10 a.m next morning.
I cannot praise the care given to me enough from the time I entered the hospital. From my first meeting with receptionists/care assistants/nurses and in particular my surgeon. I received first class care. It has nearly been a year since my operation I am now pain free and working back full time.”
I was ten plus years on a waiting list for Total Knee Replacement, but within two months of contacting Surgerynow, Chris had answered all my questions and had everything organised with the hospital. From consultation to surgery and through Post Op the whole thing was first class.
I was waiting 2 years after my doctor s referral for appointment to see a consultant. I was told that I would probably waiting another 2 years. Then I found about surgery now cross border Directive where I could go to Spain for my hip surgery. so I rang them and everything was up for me In Matter of days – Within one month I had my hip replacement in Benidorm and I was back home pain free. I couldn’t praise Surgery Now and the doctors and surgeons and staff anymore for the care that I got while I was there. I would recommend it to anyone who is in pain to contact Surgery Now. I also got reimbursed a couple of weeks after.
I was waiting 5 years for a knee operation and travelled from cork to Alicante for my knee replacement surgery – after contacting surgery now – and in the middle of the covid crisis – I was there in matter of weeks and the service was second to none -in terms of being worried about covid – I couldn’t have felt safer and I couldn’t have been looked after any better
I highly recommend anyone to get themselves out of pain by using the cross border directive

Let our children back to school now @MichealMartinTD @NormaFoleyTD1 You have now let teachers unions and NPHET cause more harm than good. The seasonal surge has left us largely. Defend our kids! Their parents are not their teachers ! They need 2 thrive ! https://t.co/NZvEPRFY5f
6 patients needing hip & knee replacements & other surgeries left Ireland 4 Alicante Yesterday -they are flying for essential purposes - they will return in two weeks without the pain they have been suffering in for years- ready to start a new life @Ryanair @FergalBowers @AFDirl https://t.co/djKANl4g4l
@FergalBowers That’s great Taoiseach but- is it time for politicians to show unity with the rest of population by taking a pay cut? -Perhaps the hospitality industry would understand better if all of society were prepared to share the pain?
