New Zealand Group Travel - Phuket & Pattaya
In July, Jo from Restored Beauty Getaways New Zealand, escorted a medical group to Thailand. Procedures included breast augmentations, face lifts, liposuction, tummy tucks, dental work and SuperSight Surgery.
We arrived in the dark and were delighted to wake up to this after having left New Zealand with snow storms, wind and rain.
But the beach had to wait - we came for a reason!
So under the care of our fabulous on-ground co-ordinators, Plah, New & Bee, we were taken to our consultation appointments & the pre surgery health tests.
The next few days the surgeons worked their magic while the nursing teams made sure everyone were comfortable and well looked after.
'We told the family we were going 'on holiday' (We just omitted to say Medical Holiday!)'

"We found Bangkok Phuket Hospital treatment & staff professionalism excellent. Hospital accommodation-first class. With a good combination of holiday & treatment expertly organised by Jo, we are trying to find something wrong with us to go back!! [Fun & pain has never been so good!]"
"I want to say thank you so much for the wonderful job you did in organising and managing our trip to Thailand .You had so many different needs to attend to on an ongoing basis and you handled it all with good humour. Your sense of humour and your willingness to share your local knowledge, as well as the professional side, made the journey for me and I am sure for the others too."
"I am delighted with my eyesight. It is truly an investment in my future. I intend to return for more dental work and cosmetic procedures next. You would never get the same expertise and service here in New Zealand."
"Fabulous experience. I would recommend to anyone to join a group - it makes the 'healing process' so much fun ! The hospital staff are amazing! -so professional, warm and caring."
"I've returned home with more than an 'improved look' . The whole experience was superb."
