This section covers 10 surgical services: from an online consultation with a surgeon to appendectomy, hernia repair, abscess treatment and wound care. If the pain is severe and does not go away, seek urgent medical help rather than reading web pages. If your condition is not urgent or you are abroad, the process usually starts with a consultation, where the scope of surgery and the price are determined.

Patients rarely search for the name of a procedure — they search for what is bothering them day to day. Choose the description closest to your situation.
Sudden pain in the lower right abdomen, with nauseaAcute abdominal pain cannot be diagnosed from a description on the internet: you need an examination by a surgeon, blood tests and an ultrasound, and this should happen urgently, not “once it passes”.A cut or skin injury — the wound is deep and dirtyThis calls for primary surgical wound debridement: the wound is cleaned and, if needed, stitched or drained. The less time that has passed since the injury, the simpler the treatment.A lump under the skin that is slowly growingMost often this is a lipoma, an atheroma or another subcutaneous lump. At the examination the surgeon decides whether it needs removing and whether the tissue should be sent for histology.I am abroad and have a discharge summary and scans — I want a surgeon’s opinionThat is what the online consultation is for: the doctor reviews your situation and documents remotely. If surgery is needed, the consultation covers its likely scope and what to prepare before you travel.

What determines the method and the price
What affects the scope of surgery and the cost
Planned or emergency — Planned surgery — a hernia, lipoma or sebaceous cyst — can be prepared in advance: tests, a date, the trip. Acute appendicitis or an infection with pus leaves no such choice: the sequence of steps is dictated by your condition, not by a convenient schedule.
Approach: open or laparoscopic surgery — In the clinic’s published prices, open appendectomy starts from USD 318 and laparoscopic appendix removal from USD 364. Which approach is possible in your case is decided by the surgeon based on the examination and test results.
Complications and the need for monitoring — Surgical treatment of acute abdominal pain with a hospital stay starts from USD 419. The difference here is not the operation itself but how long you are monitored and how much care you need.
Anaesthesia — In this section, removal of lipomas, sebaceous cysts and foreign bodies, abscess drainage and wound debridement are usually performed under local anaesthesia. Appendectomy and hernia repair are usually done under general anaesthesia, which changes both the preparation and the time you spend at the clinic.
Histology and additional tests — For skin lesions, the clinic offers an option with histology and a dermatologist consultation from USD 47, while removal of skin lesions (papillomas, moles, warts) starts from USD 13 and removal of subcutaneous lumps (lipoma, sebaceous cyst, fibroma) from USD 46. Whether histology is needed is decided by the doctor at the examination.
How long the procedure takes — Timing depends on the procedure: appendectomy and hernia repair take from 40 to 90 minutes, while abscess drainage or lump removal depends on the type and size; the surgeon gives the time after the examination. The duration affects how you plan the day of your visit, not just the price.

How much it costs in Ukraine
All prices in the table are starting prices (“from”), in US dollars, as given in the clinic’s published prices. The final cost depends on the approach (open or laparoscopic surgery), the type of anaesthesia, any complications and whether a hospital stay and histology are needed.

Questions and answers
How much does appendix removal surgery cost in Ukraine?
In the clinic’s published prices for this section, open appendectomy starts from USD 318 and laparoscopic appendix removal from USD 364. These are starting prices: the final figure is given after an examination, blood tests and an ultrasound.
How does laparoscopic appendectomy differ from open surgery?
Open surgery is performed through an incision in the abdominal wall; laparoscopic surgery is done through several small incisions under camera guidance. Both options are available in this section, both are performed under general anaesthesia and take from 40 to 90 minutes. Which approach is possible in your case is decided by the surgeon: it depends on the condition of the appendix, any complications and other health conditions.
Can I get a free online consultation with a surgeon?
The online surgeon consultation in this section is paid: from USD 18 and an extended consultation with a review of your test results from USD 24. The format is designed mainly for people who are currently abroad and want to discuss their scans and discharge summaries before planning a trip. The clinic’s team communicates with international patients in English.
I cleaned the wound at home — when is that not enough and a surgeon is needed?
Primary surgical wound debridement in this section starts from USD 28. It is performed under local anaesthesia. The extent needed — simple cleaning, stitches or drainage — is decided by the doctor at the examination, based on the depth of the wound, how dirty it is and how much time has passed since the injury.
What should I do if I have acute abdominal pain?
Acute abdominal pain needs to be assessed by a doctor in person: an examination, blood tests and an ultrasound are required, because the cause cannot be identified from a description alone. This section includes an initial consultation and diagnosis from USD 125 and surgical treatment with a hospital stay from USD 419. Whether to take pain relief before the examination is for the doctor to decide.
Is histology needed after removal of a lipoma or sebaceous cyst?
In the clinic’s published prices for this section, lipoma removal starts from USD 86, sebaceous cyst removal from USD 46, and removal of several lumps with a surgeon consultation from USD 111. Removal of subcutaneous lumps (lipoma, sebaceous cyst, fibroma) is listed as a separate item from USD 46: these are two different items, and which one applies to you is decided at the examination. For skin lesions, there is an option with histology and a dermatologist consultation from USD 47. The need for histological examination is decided by the doctor; it cannot be settled remotely from a photo.
Not sure what to prepare for?
An online consultation with a surgeon is a format in which the doctor reviews your discharge summaries and scans and discusses the next steps with you. If the pain is severe and getting worse, you need urgent medical help — this is not a case for waiting for a planned consultation.
