About the clinic

Valgus deformity treatment at Leech Private Clinic in Graz, Austria, focuses on restoring foot function through specialized orthopaedic care. Patients can access consultations with an orthopaedist starting around $140, while lab tests are typically around $300. The facility holds ISO 9001:2015 accreditation and uses a unique system where patients choose their specific attending physician for personalized care.

Diagnostics and consultations

The clinic provides several diagnostic steps to assess the severity of a foot deformity. Specialists determine the degree of bone misalignment and suggest the most effective correction method. These evaluations are the first step in creating a tailored surgical or therapeutic plan.

  • Consultation with an orthopaedist. This expert physical exam typically runs $140–$270.
  • Traumatologist evaluation. Specialist reviews for complex bone misalignments may cost around $140–$270.
  • Lab tests. Essential blood work and preoperative screenings are around $300.

Surgical treatment options

Orthopaedic surgery for valgus deformity at Leech Private Clinic is performed in one of three modern operating theatres. Dr. Josef Raschid, a specialist in orthopaedics and orthopaedic surgery, provides expert care for musculoskeletal conditions. The clinic uses minimally invasive and endoscopic techniques to help patients recover faster. These methods reduce the size of incisions and limit damage to surrounding tissues.

For smaller procedures, the day clinic allows patients to undergo surgery and return home the same day. More complex corrections may require a hospital stay. The clinic also collaborates with Private Hospital Laßnitzhöhe if a patient needs post-operative rehabilitation. This connection helps patients regain mobility through professional physical therapy after their procedure.

Clinic facilities and support

The hospital operates an in-house CT and X-ray department for immediate imaging. This makes the diagnostic process smooth and fast for international travelers. Patients visiting from abroad receive dedicated support throughout their stay.

  • International patient support. The team provides visa assistance and organizes transfers.
  • Attending physician system. You can select your preferred specialist for your surgery.
  • Advanced imaging. In-house CT and X-ray equipment are used for precise bone assessment.

Leech Private Clinic : more details about the clinic

Austria, Graz

Privatklinik Leech, founded in 1973, is a private surgical clinic in the centre of Graz, the capital of Styria in southern Austria. It belongs to SANLAS Holding, a Styrian healthcare group founded in 1980 that today runs twelve health facilities across rehabilitation, care, prevention, acute medicine and surgery. 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.

Surgical Specialties

The clinic covers almost every surgical field apart from obstetrics, including:

  • Ophthalmology, including cataract surgery, lens implants and eyelid operations
  • Orthopaedic surgery
  • Urological surgery, including a new minimally invasive, endoscopic technique for the prostate
  • Ear, nose and throat surgery, including tonsil and adenoid operations in children
  • Plastic, aesthetic and reconstructive surgery
  • Gynaecological surgery
  • Vascular surgery with interventional angiology

Dental treatment under general anaesthesia is also available.

Cancer and Other Treatments

Several of the clinic's procedures address cancer, including breast-conserving operations for breast tumours, the treatment of eye tumours, and the removal of skin moles and tumours with subsequent pathological assessment. The clinic also offers gastroscopy and colonoscopy, internal medicine with cardiology, angiology and gastroenterology, neurology, dermatology and interventional pain therapy. On-site computed tomography and X-ray support fast and accurate diagnosis.

Day Clinic

A dedicated day clinic allows many treatments to be carried out in a single day, without an overnight stay, including:

  • Cataract operations
  • Eyelid surgery
  • Removal of moles and skin tumours
  • Smaller orthopaedic procedures such as carpal tunnel release
  • ENT operations
  • Minor plastic surgery

Comfort and Safety

Every room is equipped with:

  • An electrically adjustable bed
  • A refrigerator
  • A safe
  • Satellite television
  • A nurse-call system

Wireless patient monitoring is available in every room for safety after an operation. Patients also have access to a cafeteria, a lounge and a quiet garden courtyard.

International Patients

The clinic settles accounts directly with many statutory and all Austrian private insurers, as well as numerous foreign insurance providers. Self-paying patients from Austria and abroad receive an individual quotation in advance, so they can decide on treatment with full cost certainty. Patients who need rehabilitation afterwards can continue their recovery at the group's rehabilitation clinic in nearby Laßnitzhöhe.

Had an artificial knee joint inserted in February 2025 and can honestly only say the best about the clinic. From the lady at reception to the nursing staff, the ward doctor and the first officer, I was treated extremely competently and in a particularly friendly and supportive manner. It is rare to find so much attention and positive human and professional support.

I had an operation on my left kidney by Dr Sunjara on February 24, 2025 at the Leech Private Clinic. A top clinic, starting with the cleaners, nursing staff and doctors, all very nice and friendly. Also a big compliment to the kitchen food was perfect.
