Shoulder replacement involves substituting the damaged parts of the shoulder joint with artificial prostheses. Thai medical facilities, equipped with cutting-edge technology, ensure that patients get the best treatment, with surgeons being adept in both traditional and reverse shoulder replacement procedures. The blend of world-class care and Thailand's scenic beauty offers patients a comprehensive healing journey.
Preparing for a shoulder replacement in Thailand usually means undergoing some diagnostic tests, including X-rays and MRI, to gauge the extent of joint damage. The results will help in customizing the surgical approach. When selecting a Thai hospital, look for those with international accreditations. Also, ensure that the medical team communicates effectively in English, ensuring clarity in all discussions.
During a shoulder replacement, the orthopedic surgeon replaces the damaged joint surfaces with prosthetic components. Following the surgery, patients are often advised to engage in controlled physiotherapy to restore joint function and strength. While in Thailand, many patients find it beneficial to remain for a while, leveraging the country's world-class rehabilitation centers. Post-operative care involves medication management, exercise guidance, and periodic check-ups to monitor healing.
Undergoing shoulder replacement in Thailand typically costs between $6,500 to $9,500. This price range reflects the variance based on the medical facility, surgeon's expertise, and the chosen surgical technique. The cost already accounts for any necessary overnight hospital stays post-surgery. However, it's essential to remember that the price does not cover flights and accommodations.

We are clients from Australia and we could not recommend Konkai health any more!
We are so pleased with the level of service from Pam in helping us organise a surgery for my husband which took place in Thailand.
We had to change a few appointments here and there (life happened on our end) and Pam was all too willing to help with no problems.
Pam helped me find both a doctor and a surgical team for my heart surgery during a time when I was struggling to get any responses from the hospitals I contacted directly. She located everything I needed and was invaluable in overcoming language barriers. I highly recommend her assistance!
I am extremely happy with the service provided by this page. It made it so easy for me to find and appoint doctors for my children and wife. The process was smooth, fast, and hassle-free. The interface was user-friendly, and I felt assured knowing I could get the best care for my family quickly. I highly recommend this service to anyone looking for a reliable way to book medical appointments. Thank you!
"Whilst searching for information on getting my cataracts done, I found that most websites do not provide sufficient information. I was fortunate enough to find Konkai.Health and connect with Pam.
She and other members of Konkai go far and beyond to do everything possible to give you the best advice.
I highly recommend this company for health related matters whilst you are in Thailand. Real five star assistance."
I made the decision to undergo cosmetic surgery in Bangkok, Thailand due to the high prices in Australia, Unsure about choosing the right hospital and doctors in Thailand, my friend suggested Konkai Medical Tourism Agency, they guided me through everything and their professional team, with strong medical connections in Thailand, made the process smooth.
The surgery went well, and I’m very happy with the results.
I highly recommend Konkai to anyone considering to come to Thailand for medical treatment 👍
"Konkai helped me with what was becoming a confusing process. After contacting Konkai they quickly found a doctor that specialized in the procedure I requested and helped set up an appointment during my trip to Thailand. I will definitely contact them again if the need arises."
"I live in New Zealand, and my partner and I went on a holiday in Laos (Asia). I became sick and needed an emergency stomach operation. I reached out to this company, and they have been nothing but helpful.
They helped us with translating in Laos; they organised a taxi driver who was waiting for us at arrival and drove us to the hospital, where they organised a scan for me. I only needed to show my passport and an email when I arrived. I was already in the system for the appointment.
Everything went really smoothly. The company is professional and reliable, and the staff is super friendly too. I would highly recommend this company. I am grateful for the great service this company offered when I was in need."
"I can say that the whole medical journey was very pleasant. The information given before the actual start was good. The meeting and intake with the doctor was clear.
Konkai Health was always responding fast and helpful if I came up with questions. And the actual surgery had a good outcome also. Now I just ended my last check-up, and I am very delighted how everything went."
"The customer care at Konkai Health has been great. I was looking at treatment options for my back. They got back to me fast and gave me options to connect with some top doctors and surgeons in Thailand. The doctors assessed my condition, did a video call, and gave me recommendations to fix it. Thank you. I recommend them for anyone interested in medical tourism to Thailand."
"I will say you made it so easy to get everything scheduled. I expected it to take much longer trying to find doctors waiting on responses etc. I was happy with the doctor just going ahead and getting it done on the same day as the first procedure. Everything went well and all the nurses were great. Thanks!"
