If you're considering hip replacement surgery in Glasgow and want a team that puts your health and time first, you're in the right place.

 

What Does a Hip Replacement Involve?

A hip replacement is a surgical procedure that replaces worn or damaged parts of the hip joint with artificial components. It helps reduce pain, restore movement, and improve balance and stability.

Depending on your needs, we offer:

  • Total hip replacement (entire joint replaced)
  • Partial hip replacement (usually the femoral head only)
  • Hip resurfacing (for younger, active patients with early-stage damage)

Your consultant will guide you through the most suitable treatment option based on clinical assessments and imaging.

 

How Much Does Hip Replacement Cost in Glasgow?

Hip replacement costs in Glasgow can vary depending on provider, complexity, and the level of care provided. At Electiva, our private hip replacement packages start from £11,495, and include:

  • Consultant-led assessments and diagnostic imaging
  • Surgical procedure with anaesthesia
  • Overnight stay in our Glasgow hospital
  • All follow-up appointments and physiotherapy advice

Everything is included. No hidden charges – just expert care with full transparency.

 

Is Hip Replacement Right for You?

You may be ready for hip surgery if:

  • Persistent hip pain is limiting your mobility or sleep
  • Your joint feels stiff, weak, or unstable
  • Conservative treatments haven’t worked (e.g., pain relief, injections, physio)
  • Imaging confirms joint degeneration or arthritis

Our orthopaedic consultants frequently treat patients who have been in discomfort for years. If that sounds familiar, we’re here to help you explore your options in Glasgow – including hip resurfacing if appropriate.

 

What to Expect After Surgery

You’ll begin recovery shortly after your surgery – usually walking with support the same day or next morning. Our expert aftercare team ensures a structured rehabilitation process.

Typical recovery timeline:

  • Day 0–2: Hospital stay, pain management, assisted walking
  • Week 1–6: Home-based rehab, increasing mobility
  • Week 6–12: Resuming daily tasks with reduced pain
  • 12+ weeks: Full healing and greater joint function

We’ll be with you at each stage to ensure your recovery is smooth, safe, and successful.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a private hip replacement cost in Glasgow?

Our fixed-price hip replacement package in Glasgow starts from £11,495. This includes everything from consultation and imaging to surgery, hospital stay, and aftercare.

What’s included in the price?

The cost includes pre-operative assessments, your surgery with anaesthetic, a hospital stay, and all post-surgery care – including structured follow-ups and physiotherapy advice.

Why choose private hip surgery in Glasgow?

Private hip replacement allows you to bypass waiting times and get a dedicated consultant with immediate access to surgery in a modern, fully equipped hospital.

Am I suitable for a hip replacement?

If you’ve experienced reduced mobility, ongoing pain, and limited improvement from non-surgical options, you may be a candidate. We’ll confirm with scans and clinical assessment.

What is hip resurfacing, and is it offered in Glasgow?

Yes. For suitable patients (often younger individuals with early damage), hip resurfacing replaces only the joint surfaces, preserving more natural bone.

How long does recovery take?

Many patients walk with assistance within 24 hours. Most return to daily activities in 6–8 weeks, with full recovery typically reached within 3–6 months.

Will I need to stay overnight after surgery?

Yes. Our Glasgow hospital provides a one-night stay as standard, ensuring safe early recovery and monitoring by our team.

Is hip replacement surgery painful?

You’ll be under spinal or general anaesthetic during the procedure. Post-surgery discomfort is managed with medication and close clinical supervision.

What are the risks involved?

While rare, risks include infection, blood clots, or joint stiffness. Our consultants will explain all potential risks and how we work to minimise them.

Where is the surgery performed in Glasgow?

All procedures are carried out at Electiva Hospitals Glasgow, our specialist private hospital in Blythswood Square – easily accessible from across Glasgow and beyond.
