The cost of knee arthroscopy in Poland typically ranges from $1,000 to $4,000. Prices can vary depending on the clinic, the surgeon’s expertise, and the complexity of the procedure (such as meniscus repair versus simple diagnostic arthroscopy). In the United States, the average cost is $10,000 (per AAOS). That means knee arthroscopy in Poland is about 75% less than in the U.S.
Polish clinics usually include the initial consultation, pre-operative blood tests, post-op medication, follow-up visits, English-speaking staff, personalized treatment plans, post-op care instructions, meals during clinic visits, and 24/7 patient support. In the U.S., the quoted price often covers only the surgeon’s fee, with anesthesia, facility fees, and follow-ups billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included with each clinic.
