KCM Clinic: more details about the clinic

Poland, Jelenia Góra

KCM Clinic is a multi-specialty medical center in Jelenia Góra, Poland, a one-hour drive from Wrocław and Prague, opened in 2011. The clinic operates 12 departments with 36 beds, and a team of 90 doctors treats around 2,500 patients a year across bariatric surgery, plastic surgery, orthopedics, minimally invasive spine surgery and gynecology.

Why choose KCM Clinic

  • Package prices: treatment programmes may include medical consultations and diagnostics, the surgical procedure, hospitalisation, accommodation, meals and airport or hotel transfers; the exact services included depend on the individual programme and are confirmed before the patient's arrival.
  • International patient coordination: a dedicated team helps with appointment scheduling, treatment arrangements, communication with the medical team, transfers and practical aspects of the stay.
  • Modern treatment methods: KCM specialists use 3D visualisation in laparoscopic surgery, ultrasonic liposuction, joint replacement with Zimmer Biomet implants and minimally invasive endoscopic spinal procedures.
  • International medical cooperation: KCM Clinic cooperates with international medical institutions, including Stanford Health, a network of 150 medical centers, creating opportunities for professional exchange and education.

Bariatric surgery

The Weight Loss Surgery Center at KCM specialises in surgical treatment of obesity and metabolic disorders. Selected laparoscopic procedures are performed using the Olympus 3D visualisation system, which may be applied during sleeve gastrectomy and mini gastric bypass, depending on the patient's individual medical assessment.

Comprehensive weight loss programme

Depending on the individual programme, it may include:

  • comprehensive pre-operative assessment and diagnostics
  • laparoscopic bariatric surgery performed with 3D visualisation technology
  • sleeve gastrectomy or mini gastric bypass, depending on the patient's individual indications
  • airport transfer and transportation during the treatment stay
  • hotel accommodation
  • hospitalisation and post-operative medical care
  • an individual weight-loss programme for the first 7 weeks following surgery
  • a long-term weight-maintenance programme extending up to 5 years

Bariatric surgery is considered part of a broader, long-term approach to weight management; KCM combines surgical treatment with nutritional and lifestyle support to help patients adapt to the changes following surgery.

Spine surgery

Minimally invasive spine surgery is one of KCM Clinic's key specialties, with a dedicated Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery Center in Jelenia Góra; doctors have carried out over 3,000 interventions so far. Specialists perform minimally invasive and endoscopic procedures for conditions affecting the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine, accessing the affected area through a small skin incision with an endoscope and high-definition camera for continuous visual control.

  • endoscopic removal of herniated discs
  • endoscopic decompression of spinal stenosis
  • foraminotomy
  • endoscopic cervical and lumbar spine procedures
  • vertebroplasty
  • percutaneous laser disc decompression (PLDD)
  • coblation / nucleotomy / discectomy

Compared with conventional open approaches, minimally invasive techniques may allow a shorter hospital stay and recovery period in appropriately selected patients; the suitability of an endoscopic procedure is determined by the spine specialist following review of the patient's medical history and diagnostic imaging. KCM coordinates pre-operative assessment, surgery, hospitalisation, accommodation and transportation for international patients; patients undergoing endoscopic spine surgery will most likely stay at the clinic for approximately two days, although the final discharge decision is made by the treating medical team.

Gynecology

The gynecology department specialises in minimally invasive surgery, including procedures performed using 3D laparoscopic technology, for conditions such as endometriosis, uterine fibroids, ovarian conditions and fertility-related problems.

  • diagnostic laparoscopy
  • laparoscopic hysterectomy and supracervical hysterectomy
  • laparoscopic myomectomy for uterine fibroids
  • laparoscopic ovarian cyst removal
  • laparoscopic removal of the ovary or fallopian tube
  • laparoscopic treatment of endometriosis, including deeply infiltrating endometriosis
  • laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy
  • laparoscopic treatment of stress urinary incontinence
  • fallopian tube microsurgery in infertility, tubal ligation reversal
  • selected hysteroscopic, vaginal and open abdominal procedures where minimally invasive treatment is not appropriate

KCM treats ovarian endometriosis, endometriosis affecting the ovaries and fallopian tubes, and deeply infiltrating endometriosis involving the bladder or rectovaginal area; the surgical approach is determined individually depending on the location and extent of the disease. Fibroids are treated with laparoscopic or hysteroscopic techniques, or with open abdominal surgery for larger fibroids, depending on size, location and characteristics.

For international patients, KCM coordinates consultations, diagnostics, surgery, hospitalisation, accommodation and transportation. Optional services include an airport-to-clinic transfer (€270), accommodation at a partner hotel near the clinic (85 EUR for a single room, 100 EUR for a double room) and free language assistance.

I liked the clinic and the ladies who have everything under control, even after I came home—my biggest worry was aftercare, but they stay in touch

I liked the clinic and the ladies who have everything under control, even after I came home—my biggest worry was aftercare, but they stay in touch. The doctor was nice, though we only spoke for about ten minutes. I do wish the diet instructions were on paper; a lovely lady explained everything and I can still call her, but I would prefer it written. My procedure used the OverStitch system to place a double suture line. I’m feeling better than expected, though there was an extra cost for a scan.
Like the clinic and the ladies how have everything Anderi control even after I con home Nice doktor

My decision to come here feels right

The urologist began my appointment by clearly explaining every step of the examination, which set a professional and reassuring tone from the very start. That standard of care was consistent throughout my entire interaction with the clinic. The coordination was seamless, and the on-site medical team was professional and supportive. When I think back on what I liked about the process, from the first contact to the procedure itself, my honest answer is, Everything. The surgeon was methodical and the staff were attentive. I am now in my recovery period. As for what could be better, I have no suggestions to offer.

I received first-class personal treatment through every aspect of my care, from the first contact until discharge

I received first-class personal treatment through every aspect of my care, from the first contact until discharge. It was impressive. My procedure was a surgical phlebectomy for a single varicose vein in one leg. What stood out was the surgeon's approach; he performed the procedure himself and took the time to show me the ultrasound images to explain everything clearly. He also made sure I understood the compression stocking routine for my recovery. I can confirm there were no additional expenses on top of what I initially paid to the clinic.
First class personal treatment in all aspects care and treatment from initial contact to discharge. Highly recommend

For me, the competence of the surgeon and the supportive nature of the clinic staff were the most important factors, and both were consistently present

If you're researching a breast lift, you probably value a clear and organized process, just like I do. The entire journey, from initial inquiries to arriving at the clinic, was managed with a high degree of professionalism. Everything was handled efficiently. The clinical environment was orderly, and the staff were attentive throughout my stay. I found my surgeon to be very thorough during our discussions, making sure all technical aspects were understood before moving forward. I'm currently in the early phase of recovery, and the healing is progressing just as the medical team outlined it would. For me, the competence of the surgeon and the supportive nature of the clinic staff were the most important factors, and both were consistently present.
