-> Hip Replacement
Hip replacement surgery is a procedure in which a surgeon makes an incision over the side of the thigh, removes the diseased parts of the hip joint, and replaces them with new, artificial parts. Why it’s performed
Your doctor may recommend hip replacement if you have significant pain, inflammation and damage to your hip joint due to conditions such as:
• Osteoarthritis (most common)
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Osteonecrosis (avascular necrosis)
• Injury such as hip fracture
• Tumor in the hip joint


-> Knee replacement -
Knee replacement surgery, also known as arthroplasty, is generally regarded as an effective treatment for end-stage knee arthritis. It results in improved knee function and significantly relieves severe pain caused by degenerative joint diseases. All knee replacement procedures are generally divided into 2 major groups, depending on whether the knee is replaced totally or partially. A knee joint is often compared to a hinge which allows to flex, extend and limitedly rotate the lower leg. Structurally it resembles three separate joints: a slightly rounded end of the thigh bone forms 2 separate articulations with a slightly hollow end of the shinbone which has a mobile kneecap on top. The most common indication for total knee replacement is severe osteoarthritis that affects all surfaces of these synergic joints and causes pain which is unresponsive to medical management.

-> Cataracts
What is a cataract? The eye is like a camera where the retina is the film at the back, and the lens is positioned at the front of the eye, just behind the pupil. A cataract is a clouding in the lens of the eye. The lens in your eye focuses light and is constructed of proteins and fluid. The proteins are arranged in a parallel fashion to allow the light to pass through the lens without interruption. The pupil dilates and contracts to control the level of light reaching the retina and the lens adjusts automatically to allow you to see objects clearly at various distances.

-> Bariatrics
Overweight and obesity is defined as ”abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents a risk to health” (World Health Organisation, 2017). It is a progressive, chronic and complex disease affecting all ages and genders. Body mass index (BMI) is the most widely used measure of obesity in clinical practice as direct assessment of body fat is not readily available. BMI defined as weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters (kg/m2), is considered to be the best available population marker for monitoring trends in overweight and obesity in adults, children and young people over time.

"I had my gastric bypass in April 2025 with Dr. Antonio Alberola at HCB Denia, and I have to say, it was the best decision I’ve ever made.”✅

"I hadn’t been in a size 12 pair of jeans for around 30 years, but I’m a size 12 again now! Instead of just throwing on baggy clothes to hide my body, I can style what I want to wear, and I feel a hell of a lot better. To feel good in your own skin is amazing. You have more confidence in your body and in yourself."

“The service offered to me, from the very start of my journey until now, has been 5 stars. If you’re considering weight-loss surgery, I highly recommend getting in touch with Healthcare Abroad. It truly changed my life."

"Hi everyone...just got back last Saturday from Dénia after a bilateral hip replacement. 8 weeks ago today I made contact with Healthcare Abroad and it was the best decision ever."

"The staff of Healthcare Abroad and HCB Dénia Hospital were so compassionate, helpful, caring, funny and they all expressed how much they loved their jobs. My surgeon Dr. Lucas Kleijn was the best ever. He was such a lovely man and fantastic at his work. I'm 17 days post surgery and am doing great."

"Can't imagine sitting here in pain for 2 more years waiting on surgery. This year I turn 60 and having double hips done was on my list so that box is ticked..I'll be celebrating for the rest of the year pain free thanks to Dr Kleijn and Healthcare Abroad."

"I’ve lost 7 stone since my gastric bypass with Dr. Alberola. I’ve had no complications, I feel more energized, and my bloods are looking great. I’m really happy with where I am now. I still need a knee replacement, but since losing the weight, I’ve been completely pain-free—it’s such a relief."

"The Healthcare Abroad team was so prompt and efficient throughout the whole process. Tony, our driver while we were there, made everything such a breeze. He made things a lot easier with his humor—it really helped take the edge off the experience. For anyone who might be anxious or nervous, having someone make the process a bit light-hearted definitely makes a difference."
