Why joint replacement in Shanghai
In Europe and North America, joint replacement means long specialist waiting lists and out-of-pocket costs that can reach tens of thousands of dollars. Shanghai is the meeting point of mature experience built on enormous surgical volume and costs and timing you can understand before you commit.
We connect you with experienced joint replacement teams, and handle everything from your first consultation to post-discharge follow-up back home — including English surgical reports and discharge summaries, so you can hand them to your family doctor and continue care seamlessly.
A clear path, in four steps
Records review
Your existing imaging and records help the team confirm the consultation pathway.
Consultation & assessment
Matched with a joint replacement team; the procedure and expectations are clarified.

Arrival arrangements completed in one go.
Surgery & handover
Surgery, hospital stay and rehabilitation guidance, with English records handed over for care back home.
Questions you may have
Do I need a referral from a US or Canadian doctor?
No referral is needed for an initial consultation. Your home doctor's records and imaging help us match you more precisely, and we keep your family doctor in the loop for post-surgery handover.
Will insurance cover this?
Coverage varies by policy. We prepare the standardised English documents most insurers and third-party claims administrators require. Please confirm coverage with your policy before travelling.
