Czech Republic

Czech Republic’s healthcare system developed rapidly after the fall of communist regime in 1989. Thanks to quick growth in funding paired with keeping up with the newest technologies, Czech hospitals are practically equal with those in Western European countries. The opening of borders after 2004 accession to EU caused many international patients to seek cosmetic surgeries in Czech clinics. One factor was of course lower, more affordable prices. However, Czech healthcare system’s technological development and well-educated, multilingual teams of specialists had also a big influence.

Especially hospitals in Prague enjoy a good opinion. However, clinics in Brno and other major cities also present superb quality in plastic surgeries and treatment of various medical conditions.

Cheap flights from many destinations also work for patients’ advantage, causing more and more people to seek the help of Czech doctors.

• Prague (Praha) – there are many reasons why tourism in Prague is thriving. Centuries-old, stunning Prague Castle, picturesque Charles’ Bridge, Old Town bearing a wonderful medieval vibe, Jewish quarter – all of this and more makes Prague a city you want to visit more than once.

• Český Krumlov – another foundation stone of Czech tourism, this small medieval town attracts thousands of tourists every day. Its castle, river view, and memories of centuries of rich history will make you fall in love with it.

• Olomouc – the city of Olomouc is another pearl of medieval architecture. It should catch the attention of tourists who do not like crowds since its popularity is much smaller than this of Český Krumlov. Try to visit it before it becomes a focus of tourism of the Czech Republic!

• Karlovy Vary – known previously as Carlsbad, this city should provide some relax and comfort after intensive sightseeing in Prague or Olomouc. It was famous for its thermal springs for centuries and remains so today, attracting many foreigners, especially from Russia.
