Scoliosis Treatment in Leech Private Clinic
About the clinic
Scoliosis treatment at Leech Private Clinic in Graz, Austria, involves a clear pathway from expert diagnostics to specialized spinal surgery. Costs for an orthopaedic consultation may be around $100–$300, while pre-operative lab tests typically run $300. The facility holds EN ISO 9001:2015 accreditation and uses a unique specialist system where patients choose their own surgeon.
The clinic uses the Belegarzt system, which gives you the freedom to select a specific specialist for your procedure. Dr. Josef Raschid, a specialist in orthopaedics and orthopaedic surgery, provides expert care for patients with spinal conditions. The hospital features three modern operating theatres and on-site imaging to support precise surgical interventions.
Diagnostics for scoliosis
Before surgery, the medical team performs a full assessment to determine the curve of the spine and the best treatment approach. Most diagnostic steps happen on-site for patient convenience.
- Orthopaedic consultation. An examination and assessment by a specialist to review the spinal condition.
- Lab tests. Standard pre-surgery blood work to check health status before anesthesia.
- On-site imaging. The clinic uses CT scans and X-rays to visualize the spine and plan the surgery.
Surgical and rehabilitation options
Treatment focuses on correcting spinal alignment and improving mobility. The clinic provides acute surgical care followed by a structured recovery path.
- Orthopaedic surgery. Specialists perform either minimally invasive or conventional open surgery for scoliosis. The procedure includes anesthesia, nursing care, and monitoring in the Intermediate Care Unit (IMCU).
- In-house physiotherapy. Patients start their recovery with physical therapy immediately after the operation.
- Post-surgery rehabilitation. The clinic works with Private Hospital Laßnitzhöhe for a 3-week musculoskeletal recovery program. This transition helps patients regain strength and improve their range of motion.
Leech Private Clinic offers a comfortable environment with 44 beds in single and double rooms. A dedicated anesthesia team and 24/7 nursing care support patients during their stay. While surgery is the primary intervention for severe cases, the medical team tailors the approach to each individual's needs. You can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss a personalized treatment plan with a specialist.

Leech works as a "Belegarzt" clinic: patients are treated by the specialist of their choice from a team of around 100 doctors, who use the clinic's operating theatres, nursing team and infrastructure. With 44 beds in single and double rooms, three operating theatres and a round-the-clock recovery unit, the clinic combines a broad surgical range with the comfort and personal atmosphere of a small private hospital in the heart of the city.
