Consultations are not carried out in the
UK. You can travel
to Zagreb for a
consultation at any
time, but most
patients prefer to
upload photographs onto our server with their enquiry. Staff at the clinic will let you know when to expect a telephone call from the surgeon. His English is
very good.
If you are still
undecided about having
surgery, it is
possible to reserve
your procedure time and
arrange your trip with
an open flight ticket.
If after your
consultation you
decide not to go
ahead, then return to
the
UK

Flights. Direct
flights to Zagreb from
Heathrow London can be
obtained from Croatia
Airlines.
Please see the link to flights. From other airports in the UK, it is may be necessary to change flights. Wizz Air now fly to Zagreb from Luton. The clinic are able to arrange flights. Please forward your flight confirmation to us as soon as possible, so transfers can be arranged and your surgery date is fixed.
Paying for
surgery:
A
deposit of 500 euros is required to
reserve your place for
surgery.
To pay the balance. The balance needs to be paid one week in advance of your departure to Croatia. This is collected on behalf of the surgeon by Linda Briggs Ltd. Some patients take
cash, by prior agreement with the surgeon, in GBP
Sterling or Euros, but
it is better for UK
patients to change
money into Euros in
Croatia as the fees
are less.
Credit/debit
card payments can
be made over the
telephone to our
office by telephoning
01354 610368.
To the total amount
for surgery, must be
added the card
charges, which vary
considerably and the
bank transfer fee. This is then
transferred to the clinic
before your
surgery. By paying in the UK, a refund can be made back to your card if you decide not to go ahead.

Surgery.
Your
surgery is usually the
day after arrival and
you will be collected
from your
accommodation,by Boris and
taken to the
laboratory for your
blood test. If
you are having a
general anaesthetic,
you will then be taken
to the ECG doctor. You must pay for
these tests
individually, so
ensure you have enough
Euros or Kuna to cover
the cost. You
will then be taken to
the clinic for your
consultation.
If you decide to go
ahead with your
surgery, it will be
carried out and you
may spend one night in
the clinic or return
to your
accommodation.
Length of stay in
Zagreb should be
eight nights. That is the
night you arrive,
ready for an early
start the following
day. The
stitches (if any) are
then removed the
morning of your
departure.
Hotel
accommodation can
be paid with credit
cards or cash in the
usual way.
Private
accommodation is
paid by cash in Euros
or Kuna. Because
of some dishonest
patients, it has
become necessary to
ask patients to pay on
arrival for their
private
accommodation.
Media interest in
cosmetic surgery. If after having
surgery you wish to go
public, please let
Linda know. Some
journalists will pay
£1,000 for a good
story, but the average
is about £600.
Linda will put
you on her list of
people willing to talk
to the media and your
contact number will be
given when you fit the
criteria. If you
would like to do this,
or publish your
cosmetic surgery
diary, please let
Linda know.
