Specialty
Orthopedics & Joint Surgery
Joint replacement, spine surgery, sports medicine, and minimally invasive orthopedic procedures.
Total joint replacement in China costs 60–80% less than in the United States, while using identical implants from Zimmer, Stryker, DePuy, and Smith & Nephew. Recovery support and rehabilitation programs are designed for international patients.
Common procedures
- Total knee replacement (TKR) — Robotic-assisted available
- Total hip replacement (THR) — Anterior, posterior, and direct lateral approaches
- Spine surgery — Disc replacement, spinal fusion, scoliosis correction
- Sports medicine — ACL/PCL reconstruction, meniscus repair, shoulder arthroscopy
- Hand & foot surgery — Carpal tunnel, bunion correction, joint reconstruction
Typical patient journey
Most joint replacement patients stay 14–21 days: 2 days pre-op, surgery, 5–7 days hospital recovery, then 1 week of in-country physiotherapy before flying home. Bilateral procedures (both knees/hips) can be done in one trip — saving travel cost.
