If a complication occurs
While you are in Armenia
Surgical complications requiring additional treatment while you are under the clinic’s care in Armenia are managed by the clinic. Surgical decision-making remains with the operating surgeon.
If a complication occurs
After you return to the UK
Urgent symptoms must be directed to 999, A&E or your local urgent care services. Non-urgent concerns should be raised through the pathway so the operating surgeon can review and advise.
Unless expressly confirmed in writing in your individual booking terms, or covered by your specialist medical travel insurance, the pathway price does not include UK private treatment, a future return flight to Armenia, additional accommodation after a return trip, or elective revision or re-operation after you have returned home. See the Website & Booking Terms.
Before you travel
Specialist medical travel insurance
Patients are expected to arrange specialist medical travel insurance appropriate to planned elective/cosmetic surgery abroad. Standard holiday insurance may not cover planned surgery or related complications. If you have not yet arranged cover, we can provide information about specialist providers so that you can obtain a quote and purchase suitable cover directly. We do not sell, arrange or advise on insurance products.
Departure is not guaranteed by the typical-stay figure. Your surgeon confirms fit-to-fly timing. If general anaesthesia is used, UK FCDO Travel Aware guidance advises planning to remain in-country for at least 10 days after surgery. Please check current FCDO travel advice before you travel.
Urgent medical concerns should always be directed to appropriate local medical or emergency services.
