What a fantastic experience.

Upon landing in Antalya we were met by a private transfer driver who drove us in comfort to the hospital (real hospital, not a small clinic). There I met Irem who welcomed myself and husband warmly and spoke excellent English. She answered all questions and was able to calm my nerves entirely. Irem was incredibly knowledgable - with her own nursing experience - so we knew I was in good hands.

In 2 hours of arriving at the (very clean) hospital, I had received a multitude of physical health tests using high-tech equipment - these tests would have taken place over months in the UK so I was impressed!

The facilities were clean, tidy and the staff extremely friendly. Our private en-suite rooms were cleaned regularly, with fresh towels and blankets every day, if not more often. My husband who travelled with me was offered 3 meals per day from the hospital.

I met the surgeon - who performs bariatric surgery solely - who was very friendly and encouraged questions. He explained, with the help of Irem, what was going to happen and how long I would be in surgery etc.

On the day I was taken to surgery, everything went perfectly well. I was monitored by the loveliest nurses very regularly to ensure my post-op condition was good. Nothing was too much trouble, they are so efficient and all procedures were done absolutely as you would see in the UK (just quicker).

I had a 1-2-1 conversation with a dietician who explained my wasting journey post-surgery I’m great detail. I was given a giant bag of vitamins, protein powders, literature regarding my surgery - what to expect etc and a comprehensive copy of my medical notes.

I was taken by private transfer to the hotel, which was lovely in a fabulous location. Myself and husband were very comfortable throughout.

I would recommend this company wholeheartedly. I think there is always the worry about “going abroad” for surgery, but I was so impressed by the efficiency, cleanliness, friendliness and knowledge of the team throughout.

I believe you get more than what you pay for and I am very excited to start my new weight loss journey post-surgery.

I am now home with no residual pain, just getting used to my new diet and tiny tummy.

Thanks all! Really appreciate you x

FQ About Gastric Balloon Clinic in Antalya / Turkey

New Zealand patients have shared their experiences with the gastric balloon, with many reporting successful weight loss results. However, there are also accounts of discomfort during the first few days after the procedure. Reviews from New Zealand also highlight the importance of finding a skilled and experienced doctor to ensure the best possible outcome.
Lap band removal is necessary for patients experiencing complications or insufficient weight loss from their adjustable gastric band. Common reasons include slippage, erosion, infection, or intolerance to the band. The removal procedure is typically straightforward, and patients may choose to undergo a different bariatric procedure, such as a sleeve gastrectomy or gastric bypass.
The choice between gastric sleeve surgery and gastric bypass depends on individual factors. The sleeve is less invasive and focuses solely on restricting stomach size, while the bypass alters both stomach size and digestive processes. Bypass surgery often results in more weight loss but comes with higher risks of malabsorption and complications.
Can you fly after gastric sleeve surgery? There is no reason why you should not fly as normal with a gastric sleeve. We do not recommend that sleeve patients fly short haul (e.g. Europe) within 7 days of their surgery and that they wait 21 days before flying medium to long haul.
It is normal to see weight gain after bariatric surgery because patients still live in an obesogenic environment, and the individual's or surgery's ability to control all factors is limited. Body fat is also subject to metabolic pressures to regain lost weight
Gastric Sleeve Treatments in Turkey, Gastric Sleeve Treatments in AntalyaIntroduction:Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as sleeve gastrectomy, is a surgical procedure that aims to help people who are severely obese lose weight by reducing the size of the stomach. It is a relatively new weight loss surgery, having been introduced in the early 2000s, but it has quickly gained popularity due to its effectiveness and low risk of complications compared to other bariatric procedures. In this article, we will cover... +More
After lap band surgery, patients must follow a specific diet to maximize the success of the procedure and avoid complications. Immediately post-surgery, a liquid diet is followed by a progression to soft foods and, eventually, solid foods. The diet must be high in protein and low in sugar, with small, frequent meals to avoid overfilling the stomach pouch created by the band.
Since salads are typically made of raw fruits and vegetables they can be more difficult to digest. And since you had bariatric surgery your ability to digest foods has changed and will take some time to adjust Foods to Avoid After Bariatric Surgery TurkeyRed meat that's tough or dry.Greasy, high fat foods.Heavily seasoned or spicy foods.Sugar alcohols, such as erythritol, glycerol, mannitol, sorbitol and xylitol.Foods reheated in the microwave.  Guava.

RNY (Roux-en-Y) gastric bypass and the gastric sleeve (sleeve gastrectomy) are two of the most common bariatric surgeries. While both procedures restrict the stomach’s size, the RNY bypass also reroutes part of the small intestine, reducing calorie absorption. The sleeve removes a large portion of the stomach without altering the intestines. The choice between the two depends on the patient’s health, goals, and surgeon recommendations.
You'll eat a soft diet between weeks three and four after surgery. During this phase, you'll continue to prioritize protein, but you'll be able to get the nutrient from foods including scrambled eggs, hummus, and tuna/chicken salad with low fat mayo. In addition, avoid the ancillary foods that can be even worse than the fast-food entrée itself. Sodas, french fries, other fried sides and even salad dressings can all contain tons of fat, sugar and ultimately calories The primary benefit of the mini gastric bypass is... +More
