How it works

Bookimed is free for patients – clinics pay us a commission, and you pay the clinic its own price with no markup. Five steps to your stem cell therapy for foot and ankle in Thailand:

  1. Share your case

    Tell us about your foot or ankle condition and share your latest scans.

  2. Get treatment plans

    Your coordinator finds clinics that match your needs and helps you choose. Your preferred clinics then send personalized treatment plans and quotes for you to compare.

  3. Plan your trip

    We set treatment dates that work for you and help arrange your flights and accommodation.

  4. Visit the clinic

    The clinic team performs your stem cell therapy for foot and ankle on the agreed date. We support you throughout your trip.

  5. Back home

    You can fly home 1–3 days after treatment, and improvement builds over 6–12 months. Your coordinator stays in touch and helps arrange a follow-up if you need one.

Some clinics ask for a deposit. A $200 or €200 deposit paid through Bookimed comes off your clinic bill and is refundable up to 10 calendar days before your visit. A deposit paid to the clinic follows its own terms.

Stem Cell Therapy for Foot and Ankle recovery timeline: what to expect week by week

You can usually fly home 1–3 days after treatment, after a wound check and clinic clearance, and use clot-prevention measures on long flights. You can return to desk work within 1–7 days, while physical jobs may take longer if your foot needs protected weight-bearing. Resume exercise after 4–12 weeks, starting with low-impact activity and waiting for clinician clearance before running or sport. Improvement is gradual, with peak pain and function usually reached by 6–12 months, though timing varies by condition.

  1. Days 1–5

    You may have mild to moderate soreness at the harvest and injection sites for 2–5 days. Rest with your foot elevated, limit walking, avoid driving, and avoid heavy loading.

  2. Weeks 1–4

    Walking gradually returns toward normal, and you can do guided mobility exercises. Avoid running or jumping, and avoid anti-inflammatory drugs if your clinician advises against them.

  3. Months 1–3

    Progressive strengthening can support your return to sport, and early pain relief may begin. Increase impact activity only after your clinician clears you.

  4. Months 3–12

    Pain and function may continue improving, with peak results usually reached by 6–12 months.

When to contact your clinic: Contact your clinic about worsening redness, swelling, or drainage at the treatment sites, or a temperature over 38°C or shivering. Seek emergency help locally for chest pain or shortness of breath.

Verified review.
If you're considering this procedure, my main advice would be to research the specific doctor because while the clinic staff themselves were fantastic, my experience with the surgeon was a letdown. The facility was good and there were no additional expenses on top of what I paid. No surprises there. However, I felt the doctor was not accommodating and was showing not very concerned. The treatment consisted of multiple injections in one visit, but it’s still too early to tell about the outcome, and I don't know what type of stem cells were used. There has been little contact since I left. Ultimately, I would advise a future patient to avoid the same doctor who attended on me.
Coordinator stayed in touch
The Doctor was not very convincing and was very commercial minded, wanting to sell medicine. His English is not good, very difficult to understand. Very discouraging.
