What the three weeks actually look like
From sending your first medical scans to your fit-to-fly clearance.
Before you fly
Reports and a surgeon’s opinion
Send your X-rays and medical history. Within 24–48 hours you get a named surgeon’s written opinion and a costed plan from each hospital you shortlist.
Day 1–2
Arrival and tests
Airport pickup, hotel check-in and hospital consultation. Blood work, ECG, anaesthesia clearance and a fitness review are completed the same or next day.
Day 3
Surgery
The operation takes 60–90 minutes per joint. You are moved to your private room the same day and stood up with support within 24 hours.
Day 4–7
Walking with physio
Twice-daily physiotherapy in the ward. Most patients walk with a frame by day two after surgery and manage stairs before discharge.
Day 8–21
Recovery and review
You stay near the hospital in a serviced hotel with outpatient physio, then a final review, stitch removal and fit-to-fly clearance before you travel home.
“I paid the hospital directly at the billing counter and the number matched the estimate Marlin sent me in Nairobi. Nobody asked me for a single extra shilling.”
Questions patients ask before they book
Essential details on payments, visa processing, language and post-operative flight permissions.
Does peripheral artery disease affect both legs?+
The pain can range from severe to mild, and generally disappear after a few minutes when you rest the legs. Both the legs may often get affected at the same time, although pain might get worse in a single leg. Other symptoms of peripheral artery disease can include hair loss on feet and legs.
Is peripheral artery disease a serious disease?+
Yes, peripheral artery disease could be dangerous as these blockages may restrict circulation to the limbs and organs. Without sufficient blood flow, vital organs, feet, arms and legs can suffer damage. If left untreated, the tissues may die or become infected, a condition known as gangrene.
Can a peripheral artery disease be treated without surgery?+
The treatment of peripheral artery disease will depend on the severity of the problem. Treatment options range from medications to basic lifestyle changes to surgery.
Can I live a normal life with peripheral artery disease?+
You can live a long life with peripheral artery disease. In case you are overweight, losing only 5% of body weight may help lower your overall chances of developing some risk factors for PAD like high cholesterol or high blood pressure.
