Orthopedics in Malaysia features full hip replacement for $8,000 and high-end pain management

Local orthopaedic surgeons are board-certified to treat trauma, age-related and congenital diseases, and other conditions in adults and children. Where possible, they apply computer-assisted and minimally-invasive surgery to reduce pain and hospital stay and to ensure better aesthetics.

In Malaysia, orthopaedic services are many and therefore they are widely available at a fraction of the cost. Specifically, hip replacement (both hips) costs from around $8,000 while the price for both knees replacement ranges from $7,000.
