Before and after CTV images: bilateral removal & C1 decompression surgery

Howdy, we’re from Canada. Dr. Kamran suggested ~7-10 days. We opted to stay much longer, 4 weeks post-surgery. There were a few factors:

  1. It is a 12 hour flight and 10 hour time change
  2. Access to healthcare in Canada is scarce, and my husband wanted to wait out potential post-op complications
  3. He has several health issues and we knew that his recovery may be harder than it is for others

I’ve heard of several people from the UK who only stay 7-12 days and have no issues flying home.

I have been keeping track of JC’s experience on another thread. It includes the breakdown of pricing, where we stayed, and what it was like to have surgery in another country: A Canadian's Journey: VES Surgery in Türkiye Dec. 10 - #102 by Isaiah_40_31
