Why consider Cyprus for elective surgery?

A temperate climate and 3,000 hours of sunshine each year makes Cyprus an idyllic location for healthcare treatments abroad. Affectionately known as the Island of Aphrodite, this captivating country has an abundance of historical sights and activities to entertain and rejuvenate the visitor, as well as glorious stretches of coastline and fresh, clean air due to the lack of heavy industry.

Flying time from the UK to Larnaca is four and a half hours and return flights with British Airways are very affordable, starting from as little as £139 inclusive. Many patients take advantage of Cyprus’ mild Spring and Autumn weather and the cheaper air fares at this time.

Nikosia (also known as Lefkosia) is the capital of Cyprus and located at the very heart of the island. It is a modern sophisticated city and the commercial centre where many surgical and dental clinics are located. Other major towns are Larnaca, Pafos and Limassol (also known as Lemesos), which is a seaside resort on the south coast and another popular location for private health clinics.

Board Certified doctors and surgeons are trained either in the UK or the US and work in modern facilities which are designed for comfort and efficiency, using the latest technology and equipment to provide expert surgery. The surgeons work together with quality anaesthetists, nurses and medical personnel all of whom speak English. Cypriots are very welcoming and are renowned for their hospitality.

Additionally, dental treatment is available in Cyprus for a fraction of UK and continental prices. Techniques and procedures are at the very top level and the Nicosia Dental Polyclinic (a specialist dental polyclinic, providing more than just cosmetic dentistry) offer a ten year guarantee for implants. Laser whitening can cost between £700- £1300 in a private UK clinic but at the Nicosia Dental Polyclinic it is just £300.
