04 — Recovery & Aftercare
The practical support around your recovery — transfers, nursing, accommodation, food and the small things that make a difficult week easier.
Overview
None of these services are compulsory, and you are never charged for something you did not ask for. Tell us what you would like handled and we will handle it; tell us you would rather manage it yourself and that is equally fine.
Most are arranged during planning, before you travel, so that everything is already in place when you arrive.
Service
A private transfer between Málaga Airport and the clinic or your residence, in both directions. Málaga Airport is approximately 15 minutes from our Recovery Residences and around 45 minutes from Vogue Clinic in Estepona; Gibraltar is another option on some UK routes.
The return transfer matters more than the outbound one — after a procedure, a taxi rank is the last thing you want. We book it around your flight, not around ours.
Service
Optional private nursing during the first days of recovery, when help is most useful — dressings, medication, mobility, and simply having someone present who knows what normal looks like.
Your doctor will tell you whether nursing is genuinely advisable for your procedure. For many treatments it is not necessary, and we will say so.
Service
Most patients recovering with us stay at the Recovery Lounge or the Recovery Loft — two private residences designed for recovery rather than adapted for it.
If you would prefer a hotel, or you are travelling with family, we can coordinate that instead. See International Patients for how this fits into a trip.
Service
An optional in-residence chef during your stay. Recovery is not the week to be worrying about shopping and cooking, and nutrition genuinely affects healing.
Menus are adapted to your procedure and any dietary requirements, in consultation with your medical team.
Service
Practical help if you do not know the area: pharmacies, shops, appointments, transport, translation. Small things, but they are the ones that go wrong when you are unwell in an unfamiliar place.
Our team works in English, Spanish and German.
Service
Additional wellness support during a recovery stay, always coordinated with your medical team so that timing is right — including massage therapy and lymphatic drainage where they are appropriate for your stage of healing.
Timing matters: some of these help, and some of them help only once your doctor says so.
