Reviews

Harry. Mission impossible achieved !! ....But only because Harald Walseth at Medical Repatriations was in charge.
Imraan needed to repatriate his mother , who after a severe stroke in 2016 , needed constant oxygen and is paralysed down her left hand side. In October 2020 following the death of her husband, who was also her carer, she found herself stranded 6000 miles away from her family in Cape Town.
She had been left dependant on the state and forced into considering going into a nursing home where Covid restrictions would have prevented her from seeing her family .
Her son Imraan flew over from South Africa to look after her and fly her home but it soon became apparent that the cost of this venture was beyond the reach of the family. Quotations from some companies were astronomical and out of the question.
And then we found Harald at Medical Repatriations. Immediately he took charge of getting supporting letters from the GP and once this was achieved he began organising flights and medical clearance, arranging everything from the medical team, ambulances and oxygen.
Today despite all the quarantine and travel restrictions, I am incredibly pleased to be able to say that Imraan and his mother are happily at home with their family. Their journey was by no means easy and there were some unforeseen nail biting moments along the way which tested everyone involved.
However, without a doubt it was Harald at Medical Repatriations, with his expertise and commitment that made this all possible, Thank you , Dr Barbara Brockway Cousin and family friend.
Thank you for being so professional and so efficient. Mary Suerez, The British Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
Two of our very close friends, Bill and Dot, found themselves in difficulty in Tenerife, when Bill suffered a heart attack and fell to the floor hitting his head on a kerbstone. He was taken to Intensive Care and has been in a coma ever since his fall on the 14th of November. The Insurance company declined to pay anything and Dot was left in great difficulty without funds to repatriate him. A GoFundMe page was set up and it gathered enough funds to have him flown home. Medical Repatriations sorted everything out from the Ambulance in Tenerife to his hospital bed in England. They were superbly professional and very compassionate and extremely helpful. I cannot thank them enough for getting our friends home. If you ever find yourselves in this sort of situation, please call them, they are excellent at what they do. Mr Steve Spencer
A big thank you for all your help and support in getting us home safely. You were brilliant ! You made a potentially stressful day a dream. Thank you from the both of us. Gordon and Tessa Smith.
Our family would like to thank Harry and his team for the seamless ,end to end support in flying my sick father back to the uk. The team dealt with the complex situation of repatriation, ground ambulances and air ambulance, liaising with the hospital at both ends to ensure discharge and admissions as efficient as possible. After 2 days of dealing with other companies, the onus was on us as a family to arrange admission and discharge, however when we made contact with Harry, he made sure my father was returned to the Uk as quickly as possible and soon got the situation resolved. The team were compassionate , understanding and ensured my fathers health was at the forefront of the repatriation. Many thanks from the Peters family.
Massive thank you to you and your team ,my sister can not praise you highly enough. Peter is making good progress now he is home and this is all thanks to you. We commend you with your 5 star service. From Peter Hills family.
Just catching up on correspondence now we are home and would just like to thank you so much for your help and support in getting Ronnie home safely to the Uk. Thanks to your excellent organisational skills and expertise, the transfer process ran like clockwork. You took the stress out of everything, thanks again, Karen Woolvine.
Thank you for your help to get us repatriated. You gave us all a lot of confidence and made everything go so smoothly, George and Marilyn Walker.
I cant thank Rachel and Harry enough for taking a weight off my shoulders when trying to repatriate my friend from Malta who had suffered a severe stroke. They were just Brilliant, Regards, Judith.
Our father suffered a nasty fall in Portugal in October 2019. He fractured his skull and sustained a significant brain injury. Harry made an extremely stressful situation manageable with his constant communication and reassurance. He was always available. He organised the bed to bed repatriation efficiently and very professionally , cannot thank him and his team enough. We would not hesitate to recommend him, Kind Regards, Beverley Webb
I had the misfortune of fracturing my spine whilst onboard a vessel in the Indian Ocean which resulted in me receiving excellent medical care in Colombo, Sri Lanka. When the decision was made to repatriate me to the UK it was Harald who was tasked with providing the medical care I required for the long flight home on a stretcher. On first meeting Harald he immediately put me at ease with his personality, charm and professionalism. He took control of all the admin required for my transfer and ensured that all stretcher movements etc , which were required to be done, were carried out properly and with the least pain to me. He monitored my pain relief throughout the whole journey and tended my every need with humour and humility. Being injured in a far off land is extremely stressful but you can rest assured that when Harald walks into your life you will be very well cared frond the repatriation will be stress free. I cannot recommend Harald and Medical Repatriations highly enough. A true professional. George Hall
Well I hope no-one ever find yourselves in a similar situation to us but if you do I highly recommend Harald at Medical Repatriations. I was provided with a list of approved services by the British Consulate and he was one of the companies listed there. I contacted a few for quotes but he was the only one who showed empathy towards my situation and I got the feeling it wasn’t just a job and that he genuinely wanted to help people when they needed it most. Throughout the return journey I felt completely relaxed and every time dad moved or showed discomfort Harry reacted . If I showed concern he was also quick to reassure me and I am so grateful for that. Though we parted company at the airport Harry messaged me the next day to check how my dad was doing and how he got on at the doctors. That to me just reconfirmed how caring he is and so I would like to say once again “ Thank you for everything you done for me and dad” Clare Day
COMMITTED, EXPERT, PROFESSIONAL, Sept 2019 My 87yo father was deteriorating in a Malaga hospital after a broken hip. My brother and I decided on Friday night we needed to get him back to his local hospital in West London to get better care and be near the family. We couldn’t wait for insurance and bureaucracy, so decided to book our own. We got 3 quotes from the FCO website who listed Medical Evacuation firms overnight. There wasn't much in it but we chose Harry because he seemed the most knowledgeable and supportive. We were still a bit worried, transferring 18k to a small firm we had never heard of. But Harry didn’t let us down. He worked at pace, relentlessly to make it happen. We confirmed and paid by midday on Saturday. On Sunday, 23 hours later an ambulance arrived, to take us to our small medical evacuation jet. Dad had great care from a British doctor and nurse, then a seamless transfer via Biggin Hill airport to West Middx hospital. Harry even secured dad a bed here, saving us considerable stress. What a superb and crucial service. This man is a committed professional. Dad is now stable and on the mend. Jonathan Rushforth
No one goes on holiday expecting to fall ill, let alone end up being hospitalised and diagnosed with a serious illness. But that is the situation we found ourselves in. Being unable to sit at all, the only option was for mum was a stretcher repatriation. After nearly a week of being given the run around by by GP and local hospital at home , i cannot describe the relief when Harry rang me for the first time to tell me he and Rachel would be flying out to bring mum home. His warm reassuring voice allowed me to relax a little for the first time in weeks and i gave mum the news se was so desperate to hear - she was going home. The night before our journey Harry and Rachel came to the hospital to introduce themselves to mum. They were very candid about the journey ahead, explaining exactly what would happen, preparing mum for the parts that were likely to be the most uncomfortable and also explaining the parts where they would be able to make her most comfortable. They stayed in touch with me when it wasn’t possible for me to be physically present so that I always knew exactly what was happening. So that was the ‘Process’ but what Harry and Rachel offer is so much more than a well honed process. On paper we had a long and dis jointed journey home and to be frank I was dreading it. What I could never have expected was the outstanding level of care and compassion we received . Rachel was like a lioness protecting her cub - nothing and no one was getting in her way to ensure mum got everything she needed. Harry was the consummate professional, nothing was left to chance- he was cool and calm and acted as our advocate , intervening on our behalf so I didn’’t need to worry about a thing other than being there for my mum. And above all else , I remember the laughter. We laughed until we cried ( and snorted, rather unattractively ! ). So rather far from a day o forget it became a day that will stay with us forever. Some people are born to care and some really lucky people get to pursue a career where they can really shine. Rachel and Harry shine brightly !!! Laura Marven
We would like to thank you for your help in getting our Dad back to the Uk from Tenerife last month. You made a very bad situation easier to deal with. Your quick response and the organization of the return home was very professional and fast - within two days we had our Dad back in the Uk. I cant fault anything you done and would like to thank you and your staff for all your help. Dad is doing well but a way to go yet before he is up and about, Thanks again, The Knowlton Family
The repatriation was on the whole very efficient and professional and my husband and I felt very safe and secure throughout. Harald was very smart in appearance and professional in his manner. I was looked after very well and would not hesitate to recommend Medical Repatriations to anyone. Donna Sweet
Harry was most professional throughout and I cant speak too highly about his whole attitude and his caring. We were definitely well looked after and he took time to explain everything. We were made to feel like VIP’s There was nothing I felt that could have been done better. Wendy Maureen Griffiths
Every aspect of the repatriation was excellent and professionally managed. Well done Harry. Colin Bell
Hi Harry and Rachel, I’d like to say a big fat THANK YOU to you both. You were my link back to England and I’d have been so much more panicked without you .Thanks for explaining the process and remaining calm and interesting throughout. Im in a much more comfortable ward here and waiting to speak to the doctors tomorrow. If I ever get injured in a foreign country again ( Im not planning on it ), I want you guys to pick me up. Andrew Roast.
My daughter was dangerously ill in a Roman hospital and 24 hours after contacting Harry at Medical Repatriations we were both home in the UK and she was in bed at the Westminster and Chelsea Hospital. Harry arranged for one of his team to accompany us onto a British Airways flight home then by ambulance on arrival at Heathrow. The hospital admission was also arranged by him . It was all supremely efficient and effortless for us in an awful situation. Harry kept in touch with us throughout the whole process in the most reassuring way. We could not be more grateful to Harry and his team, who I would trust to evacuate anyone out of anywhere in a very short space of time. An absolutely first class experience despite the hugely stressful circumstances, Warmest regards, Rebecca Fitzgerald.
If there ever is another Dunkirk evacuation, Id put Harry in charge , Rebecca Fitzgerald.
Professionally Unprofessional. The way Harry and Rachel looked after us on our long journey back from Australia was amazing. It wasn’t like being treated by doctors and nurses but by family members. The care shown to both myself and my husband was nothing short of remarkable and I recommend them whole heartedly.. Mrs Jaqueline Andrews
Our daughter who was living in Tenerife suffered a debilitating brain injury in October last year, She was taken to hospital in Santa Cruz where she reamined in a coma. My wife and I travelled to Teneriffe to be with her and spent most of our time on buses getting to and from the hospital. Our problem was how to get her back to the UK and in to a hospital near to where we lived. We got Harald's details from the British Consulate and he took over from these, organised a place in Harrogate Hospital (our home town), organised an air ambulance and transport from Candeleria Hospital right through to Harrogate. The air crew and attending medical crew were fantastic throughout looking after even the smallest details.The handover to the doctors at the ward in Harrogate was thorough and although our daughter is still gravely ill she is now home and we can get some normality back into our lives. Harald was the consummate professional throughout the process and made (what to us) seemed so difficult…so easy. I would recommend Harald to anyone needing repatriation help and support.John Middleton
My Dad recently fell critically ill whilst on holiday in Moldova and a medical professional I know recommended that I use Harry at Medical Repatriations to get him home. Harry was such a pleasure to deal with. He was so helpful, knowledgable and compassionate, which is exactly what you need when you find yourself in a distressing and complicated situation. Harry thought of every logistical detail, which ensured that Dad had a smooth, safe, enjoyable journey home, receiving the highest levels of care and service from hospital bed to home. If I were ever to find myself in this awful situation again I wouldn't hesitate to use Harry.Carly Slade
In 2005, I suffered a nasty accident in Peru sand surfing and consequently broke my pelvis, hip and femur. As you can imagine, this was a really traumatic and scary experience for a young 19 year old on her gap year. Luckily Harald was recommended to me and flew out to my hospital in Lima to repatriate me home to the UK. From the minute he walked into my hospital room, I knew I was in good hands and that everything was going to be OK. He was so approachable and I felt really comfortable in his care, despite the 17 hour journey home! Harald really is an asset within his role and I will never forget his kindness and professionalism. I entrusted him with my life. Thank you Harald.Ruth Carreras
Harald was a consumate professional and helped repatriate my father from Faro in Portugal back to London. He was kind, considerate and professional. In our time of desparate need - he was a solid rock - reliable, comforting, reassuring and professional. His skills and personality were invaluable to my father - and my distressed mother. I recommend him unreservedly.Dr Paul Cozens

Jetzt ist siein rehabilitationsklinik und es geht ihr immer besser. Sie macht schon die ersten schritte zum laufen. In 4-5 wochen ist sie bestimmt wieder normal gesund. Alles gute und schöne grüße und vielen dank.Heribert und Gerda
I feel I must write and thank you for the wonderful service you provided in ensuring my comfort and well being throughout the journey. Your expertise was an undoubted asset and you smoothed over every problem with the experience of a true professional . All the worries I had about flying home in the condition I was in were removed by the calm and assured manner in which you carried out your work. Thank you once again.Elisabeth Selkirk
I would like to thank you for your help and professionalism in caring for both myself and wife throughout our trying experience . The way you managed to cut through some of the petty bureaucracies that surround airports and dealt with people whose first language was not English was a sight to behold. Harry turned what was a frightening experience into one that I will dine out on for years.C. Lawrence
Thank you so much for your great care and attention to both myself and my mother during our trip from Tampa . We were both really impressed how smoothly everything went , obviously due to your good organisation and attention to detail.Lorna Saul
I’ve been waiting for some inspiration to find an appropriate way to thank you for whisking me home from Milan so efficiently. However my powers of imagination seem to be recovering even slower than my energy levels. So all I can do is offer you my sincere thanks for a mission expertly accomplished and very much appreciated. I guess you must have been told frequently how good at your job you are so may I add my voice of appreciation and ask you never to change careers or retire because if ever I get stuck again I shall seek you out personally to get me home. Yours very gratefullyRosalind Wilson
Just to say thank you for all your kindness to Hugh and myself when we were in Las Vegas and on our way home . We could never have made it home without your help. You knew just what to do and in your own quiet way set about doing it which after the past 4 weeks was a great relief to me . Thank you againHugh and Mary Ritchie

Just a quick note to say many many thanks for getting me back to Russell’s Hall hospital in Dudley. Both my wife and I were very impressed with the professional manner in which you looked after us. Best regards,Mike and Dot Edwards.
The journey back to the uk went very smoothly, to plan and on time- which was all down to your excellent organisational skills I think . It really took the stress out of a very stressful situation for me and for that I thank you so much. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending your services and your company should the operation arise.Pauline Sheridan

I am writing to congratulate you on the wonderful service and response that I got from your company recently. Whilst in Tenerife I was unfortunate enough to break my back and as you can imagine this was a very frightening experience not least as my family were back in the UK.
