The decision to have elective surgery abroad is a a daunting one but I chose to visit Nord based on the experience of a friend who had surgery here in 2023.
From the initial contact, everything was extremely professional, helpful and reassuring.
My contact was Karolina and she could not have done more to help me through what is a difficult time - especially when the NHS are just not able to provide what is needed in a timely fashion.
Arriving in Lithuania, everything went extremely well and the staff at Nord clinic are both very professional and very caring.
My surgeon, Mr Tarasevecius, was very reassuring and informative in the meetings I had with him.
The night staff at the clinic stand out in my memory as, in my opinion, they went above and beyond the expectations I had when I was in a lot of pain.
I then spent 9 days at UPA spa for physio and rehab as it suited my needs better than staying alone elsewhere.
The transfers to and from UPA were like clockwork and the care I received there was, again in my opinion, everything I needed and more.
I am writing this 13 day post surgery and whilst I am still in some discomfort and pain, Nord have put me well onto the road to recovery.
I appreciate that a experience like this is costly but not so when compared to private care in the UK and I would not hesitate in saying to anybody that if you can take this route , please do not hesitate in doing so.
I am quite happy to share my experience with anybody considering taking the plunge to do this - please just ask.
I'm summary, a great experience of a very well organised and professional service up that is worthy of the highest praise.
