A peaceful place
to heal
In Prague, just 20 minutes from the airport and in a quiet neighbourhood. Malvazinky Clinic has everything needed for a pleasant 3-to-4-week stay.
Cosy and
functional
Choose how you stay with us. Alone, with your closest one, or simply with another patient. In this temporary home of yours, your main task is to sleep well. And to get a cup of tea sometimes.
Where good
things happen
Don’t let the surgery scare you. You will only see the operation room in photographs. Just remember that it is fully equipped for any situation, and you are in the best hands.
Get on your
feet again
Increase your overall stability and strength during rehabilitation. With a personal physiotherapist and a variety of modern rehabilitation techniques, your joy through movement is just a step away.
Fresh air with
a mug of coffee
Resting is half of the recovery process. Recharge your batteries with a walk among the trees, or share time with our other patients over a hot cup of coffee in our café in the park.
Meet the doctors
What our patients ask about most
1. Why go to the Czech Republic for a joint replacement?
Let us name the most important reasons. Surgery in 21 days, Olympic-team doctors, shared know-how with our Austrian parent company VAMED, exceptional price-to-performance ratio, in-house surgery and rehabilitation, and interpreting and daily assistance from our Patient Support Manager throughout your stay at the clinic.
2. How long do I have to stay at the clinic?
On average, stays last 19 days, but we recommend 25 days to complete the recovery. The minimum is 16 days.
3. Will my insurance cover the treatment?
Yes, private insurance may cover such treatment. Please ask your insurance company. We can provide you with estimated costs and fill in the necessary documents, as well as a confirmation and overview of your treatment once done.
4. Can I bring my family?
Definitely. Having your closest ones with you helps the healing process, as the mind plays a big part in it. You can share a room with one family member, or they can visit you every day while staying in a hotel we can arrange.
5. When is the earliest that I can begin my treatment?
Usually in 3 weeks from the evaluation of your medical report and other documents – which takes us 2 workdays max. We always do our best to reduce the waiting times as much as possible.
6. When can I arrive?
Come at least two days before the surgery. This is necessary for the completion of the pre-operative assessment and tests. During this time, you stay in a hotel. Don’t hesitate to come even earlier though. The lovely city of Prague is waiting for you to explore it.
7. Are you a medical travel agency?
No. We are a direct treatment provider. You pay only for the medical intervention, not for a mediation. Thus the great price.
8. What is included in the rehabilitation?
The rehabilitation plan is always customised and contains mostly 3 to 5 daily procedures. The procedures stretch over at least 14 days. We recommend extending the stay for one more week to heal properly.
9. How can I pay?
After the initial evaluation of your case and signing a contract, you pay a third of the total price via a bank transfer. You pay the rest after arrival with cash or by card.
10. What should I arrange for the trip?
Have a valid ID card or passport, research visa requirements, and book a flight. We will assist with booking a hotel if you are interested. Your Patient Support Manager will take care of everything upon your arrival in Prague. That means you can focus on the good things ahead.
11. What if I need any follow-up care?
We are prepared. You can join our online rehabilitation programme right in your living room. It is led by the people you’ll already know from your stay in VMC.
