We have a place in La Zenia but have not been out to Spain for nearly 9 months because my partner was diagnosed with throat cancer.

He has undergone a full laryngectomy and has a one way valve in his neck to enable him to speak.

The valve can leak at anytime and needs replacing. Does anybody know please if the public hospital in Torrevieja would be able to replace his valve?

Thank you in anticipation

I think only a medical person can answer this question unless there is someone on here who has had the same procedure done.  Maybe you could contact the hospital direct?  

Having said this, the hospital is very modern and I have spoken to a few people who had cancer treatment and hip replacements there.  They all spoke very highly of the treatment they received.

Torrevieja hospital has been named as being one best hospitals in the whole of Spain so I am sure they would be able to carry out this procedure as long as you are entitled to have the treatment in Spain. I personally had a hernia operation at the hospital and was very pleased with treatment that I received, from diagnosis through to the operation and following.
