Leading British-Polish medical tourism provider expands its dental services

March 9th, 2008

StatMedica, the British-Polish medical tourism partnership that has established and excellent reputation with British patients seeking dental and medical treatment in Poland, has added a new dental clinic in the outskirts of Warsaw to its portfolio.

StatMedica’s Warsaw-based management team takes a number of factors into consideration before appointing a new dental partner. These include competitive pricing, the quality of treatment and the dental surgeon’s ability to speak English. Speaking from StatMedica’s Warsaw office, Managing Partner Lukasz Liese explains: “There are a number of aspects that we take into consideration before adding a new clinic to our portfolio. We frequently have to turn clinics away that do not meet our high standards. StatMedica understands the needs of dental patients from the United Kingdom. We are confident that we have selected clinics that have high standards, yet offer competitive prices at the same time.”

StatMedica is now able to expand on its ability to offer high quality dental care at some of the most competitive prices in Europe, with dental implants starting at GB£ 480, crowns starting at GB£ 200 and veneers starting at GB£ 250. These prices are approximately 70% less than the typical price of treatment in the United Kingdom.

An extensive network of low-cost flights from cities across the United Kingdom to destinations across Poland and affordable hotel accommodation in Poland ensure that significant cost-savings can be made by travelling to Poland.

Alison Hope, director of StatMedica’s London office said, “The cost savings that can be made by travelling to Poland for dental treatment are immense even once you factor in the cost of flights and accommodation” StatMedica assists patients in selecting a suitable clinic, and can provide local support in Poland: from translation and interpreter services to 24-hour care by a qualified healthcare professional.

Cosmetic Surgery can cost up to 65% less in Poland than in the United Kingdom

March 4th, 2008

Patients in the United Kingdom and other parts of Western Europe who are considering cosmetic surgery, can make savings of up to 65%[1] by considering treatment at one of Poland’s world-class private clinics.

Poland is rapidly becoming the destination of choice for patients who do their research, carefully consider their options, and consequently benefit from surgery carried out by highly skilled surgeons in modern facilities for a fraction of the price that they would pay at home in the United Kingdom.

Speaking from Warsaw, Lukasz Liese, Managing Partner of StatMedica, said “StatMedica has selected Poland’s leading private clinics and highly regarded surgeons. We understand the expectations and requirements of patients from the United Kingdom, and offer a complete service from advising the patient on their options in Poland, to providing support locally when the patient arrives in Poland”.

While the exact figure will depend on factors such as the individual clinic and the specific procedure, significant cost savings can be made, even after the cost of flights and accommodation has been taken into consideration. The list of cosmetic procedures available in Poland is extensive, and includes: breast augmentation, breast reduction, brow-lift, ear correction, eye-lid surgery, face-lift, nose reshaping, liposuction and tummy-tuck. Minimally invasive procedures, such as smart-lipo are also gaining popularity.

Head of StatMedica’s London operations, Alison Hope added, “StatMedica makes it easier for patients to travel to Poland for cosmetic surgery, by providing a discreet and personalised service every step of the way”. StatMedica assists patients in selecting a suitable clinic, and can provide local support in Poland: from translation and interpreter services to 24-hour care by a qualified healthcare professional.
