Surgery in Belgium

Belgium tops the list in the quality of surgery, clinical standards and after-care in Europe. To foreign patients, having surgery in Belgium offers significant advantages:

Quality care at affordable prices
Coupled with easy travel, quality of care makes Belgium a top destination for residents of the British Isles seeking to escape from long waiting lists, the problem of secondary infections and risks associated with surgery in the UK

Simply the best!
Belgium tops the list in the quality of surgery, clinical standards and after-care, with very low secondary infection rates. In addition, most of the staff, at all levels, speak English.

No waiting lists!
Flexibility built into the Belgian hospital system means that patients can often be treated almost immediately; waiting times for surgery in Belgium can be as short as a couple of weeks.

Low secondary infection rates!
The Belgian healthcare sector average less than 0.5% secondary infection rates; in the UK they are averaging 10% and in some areas increasing. Belgium's spotlessly clean hospitals and theatres have no significant problems of secondary infections and cases of MRSA are virtually non-existent.

English speaking!
Patients coming to Belgium for surgery are normally accommodated in twin bedded rooms with en suite facilities and multi channel TV with English programmes. "Patients enjoy levels of comfort and privacy often denied them in the UK" Daily Mail.

The World Markets Research Centre, a leading provider of independent business and industry intelligence, recently conducted a study of the Health of Nations. Belgium topped the 175-country list with an impressive 98 points.
