The cost of shoulder replacement in Spain typically ranges from $12,000 to $20,000. Prices can vary depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, implant type (total, partial, or reverse), and the complexity of your case. In the United States, the average shoulder replacement costs $35,000 (per AAOS). This means shoulder replacement in Spain is about 54% less expensive than in the U.S.
Spanish hospitals usually include pre-op tests, general anesthesia, high-quality prosthetic implants, 3–5 days of hospitalization, medications, and initial physiotherapy in the price. In the U.S., many of these services—like implants, anesthesia, and rehab—are often billed separately from the surgeon’s fee. Always confirm exactly what’s included at your chosen clinic.
