Where is Malta. Click here to see a map in relation to the rest of Europe. Malta is approximately 3 hours flying time from London.
How do I arrange my surgery? Linda Briggs will guide you through the process. All questions can be answered up to the point of any medical information being needed, to confirm your booking. At that point, a member of the hospital staff will make contact with you.

A consultation will take place in Malta prior to surgery or go on a weekend break, out of season to see the hospital and the surgeons prior to making a decision.
Ask Linda Briggs how you
plan your consultation.

Flights to Malta. Flights can be arranged by Linda Briggs, but if you find a good deal on a budget airline, feel free to book yourself.
Travel Agents package deals. Sometimes its possible to find a good deal through a travel agent for both flights
and hotels and it may be possible to schedule your surgery around the dates of the package. If you can find one of these, the surgery prices only, are on the price lists. (Click here for price lists)
Do I need to pay a deposit Yes, you do. Due to time wasters and the need for hospitals to plan their theatre schedules and staffing levels, its necessary to have a booking deposit of 10% of the total cost. This can be returned if cancellation is made 7 days before the surgery date. It is non refundable if cancellations are made less than 7 days before the surgery
date. Our apologies to those genuine patients who wouldn't dream of just not turning up!
Deposits are collected on behalf of the hospital by Linda Briggs, over the telephone and a receipt will be posted to you. This is also a deposit for the hotel accommodation.

Can I take a friend or my family ? Of course. Any arrangements can be made to make you feel comfortable during your stay and if it means having a friend, its not a problem. The additional cost for accommodation for a companion is on the price list.
Paying for my surgery. All surgery is paid for in advance of
the procedure, this is standard practice throughout the world for private self elective surgery.
Linda Briggs can collect the money on behalf of the surgeon a week before your departure
