Prices in the “Ukraine” column come from MediUkraine’s partner clinics. The Czech Republic and Turkey columns show the lower bounds of prices published by clinics there (for Turkey, also the Turkish Dental Association’s recommended 2026 tariff), collected in August 2026 and converted to US dollars at the rate on the day of collection. A dash means we could not find a comparable published price. In any country, the final cost is set by the clinic after an examination.
Anaemia treatment depends on the type: iron deficiency, B12 deficiency, haemolytic and aplastic anaemia develop in different ways and therefore need different treatment. The type is determined by blood tests and an assessment of iron metabolism and vitamin levels. These tests show not only how severe the anaemia is but also why the haemoglobin has fallen.
Treatment includes medicines: iron supplements, B vitamins and folic acid. In severe forms, blood transfusions are used and, in some cases, stem cell transplantation. At the same time, doctors address the underlying cause: they correct the diet and treat chronic digestive or hormonal disorders.
The MediUkraine team arranges a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, where the doctor assesses your condition, orders tests if needed and advises where and how to continue treatment. Support continues until the follow-up tests show whether the prescribed treatment is working.
Travel. Ukrainian airspace is closed, so there are no commercial flights. Uzhhorod lies right on the border with Slovakia and close to Hungary, so patients usually arrive overland from one of these two countries, by car, bus or train.
Visas. Citizens of the EU, the United Kingdom and the United States do not need a visa for short stays in Ukraine. Rules depend on your citizenship, so check your own before booking.
Safety, plainly. Ukraine is at war. Air raid alerts occur across the country, including in Uzhhorod, and an appointment can be interrupted by one. Several governments advise against travel to Ukraine, and while that advice stands, ordinary travel and medical insurance is often void — confirm your cover with your insurer before you commit to anything.
Language. MediUkraine handles correspondence, scheduling, the written treatment plan and the quote in English. The clinic's team communicates with international patients in English.
Payment. You pay the clinic directly. Our coordination service is free of charge for you.

Medication is the main way of correcting anaemia. Depending on the type and cause, iron (oral or by injection or infusion), vitamin B12, folic acid and erythropoiesis-stimulating agents are used. The regimen is based on laboratory results and your clinical picture. Treatment lasts from several weeks to several months, with regular monitoring of blood counts.
Transfusion is needed in acute situations with a dangerously low haemoglobin level or active bleeding. Red blood cell transfusions are carried out following compatibility and safety protocols. This is either emergency care or supportive treatment for chronic anaemias that do not respond to conservative treatment.
Treatment of the cause means stopping bleeding, correcting the diet when nutrients are lacking and treating the underlying disease. At the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, a haematologist assesses your condition, orders tests if needed and advises where and how to continue treatment; MediUkraine helps arrange the visit.
The recovery period depends on the type and severity of anaemia and the chosen treatment strategy. Patients treated for deficiency anaemias usually feel better within 2-4 weeks of starting iron or vitamins. Haemoglobin takes 2-3 months of regular treatment to return fully to normal, so it is important not to stop the treatment prescribed by your doctor and to have the follow-up blood tests that show whether it is working.
During recovery, your diet is built around foods containing iron, folic acid and vitamin B12. Moderate physical activity is also helpful: it supports circulation and helps your energy return. At the same time, cut out factors that make the condition worse, such as alcohol, lack of sleep and excessive stress.
MediUkraine coordinates follow-up after the main course: it stays in touch with the clinic and reminds you about follow-up tests, on the basis of which the doctor decides whether the regimen needs adjusting and how to prevent the anaemia from returning.
The treatment regimen depends on the type of anaemia, so everything starts with diagnosis: a full blood count, establishing the form of the disease and finding the reason for the low haemoglobin and red blood cell count. Based on these results, the specialists draw up an individual treatment plan.
For iron deficiency, iron supplements and a diet rich in iron-containing foods are prescribed. B12 deficiency anaemia is treated with cyanocobalamin injections, and folate deficiency anaemia with folic acid. Severe forms may require a blood transfusion.
MediUkraine arranges a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod and takes care of the organisational support.
Anaemia treatment in Ukraine costs significantly less than at clinics in Western Europe and the USA. The price difference is explained by the lower cost of medical services, staff pay and running costs.
Automated blood analysers make it possible to determine the type of anaemia accurately and target treatment precisely. A course of intravenous iron or erythropoiesis-stimulating agents also remains affordable.
MediUkraine arranges a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, from USD 20: the doctor will assess your condition and advise where and how to continue treatment. The doctor draws up the cost estimate after the examination, and MediUkraine helps you get it before you travel.
The safety of anaemia treatment depends on following diagnostic and treatment protocols. Blood morphology and iron and vitamin B12 levels are tested, and the course itself is carried out under constant laboratory monitoring, which reduces the risk of complications and side effects.
Haematologists rely on current clinical guidelines.
MediUkraine helps you decide: we provide information about the available treatment methods, the specialists' qualifications and the cost of services. If you need clarification about the diagnosis or treatment regimen, we will arrange a consultation with a haematologist before you make a decision.
📍 Uzhhorod, Ukraine
A multidisciplinary hospital in Uzhhorod, part of a network of medical facilities in western Ukraine: an outpatient clinic, a surgical centre covering 15 specialties and a 30-bed inpatient unit. Its 52 doctors include professors and PhDs; many operations are done as day surgery, with discharge after 1–2 days.
It means finding the reason for the low haemoglobin, choosing treatment based on test results and monitoring blood counts with a haematologist. Depending on the form of the disease, iron supplements, vitamin B12 or folic acid are prescribed and, in severe cases, a blood transfusion.
The first step is a haematologist consultation at the partner clinic, from USD 20. The cost of further treatment depends on the type of anaemia, the range of tests and the length of treatment, so the doctor gives the plan and cost estimate after the examination.
No special preparation is needed. Before treatment begins, you have blood tests and a consultation at which the doctor determines the cause of the anaemia and chooses a regimen. Blood is taken on an empty stomach, and you should tell the doctor about any medicines you take.
Treatment is prescribed for patients with low haemoglobin, weakness, dizziness, tiredness or changes in blood test results. The doctor makes the final decision after an examination and assessment.
Most often these are a full blood count and iron, ferritin and vitamin B12 levels. If the doctor is looking for a source of blood loss, an endoscopy or ultrasound scan is added.
From several weeks to several months, depending on the type of anaemia. Wellbeing usually improves within 2-4 weeks, and blood counts return to normal within 2-3 months. During treatment the tests are repeated and the treatment adjusted.
The outlook depends on the type and cause of the disease. Most forms of anaemia can be treated successfully, especially if diagnosed early. Iron deficiency anaemia, the most commonly diagnosed form, responds to iron supplements provided the source of blood loss has been dealt with. Anaemia caused by vitamin B12 or folic acid deficiency is corrected with replacement therapy and dietary changes.
Forms associated with inherited blood disorders or chronic conditions need long-term monitoring: here the aim of treatment is stable remission and prevention of complications. That is why everything starts with a thorough diagnosis that identifies the cause of the anaemia, as the possibility of a full recovery depends directly on it. Through MediUkraine you can book a haematologist at the partner clinic in Uzhhorod, who will assess your condition and advise where and how to continue treatment.
