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

Swallowable Gastric Balloon Whatclinic Reviews in Turkey Swallowable Gastric Balloon Reviews in Turkey We tried to collect comments for you under the topic title Swallowable Gastric Balloon Reviews in Turkey The safety of gastric sleeve surgery, or any medical procedure, in Turkey or any other country depends on various factors, including the expertise of the medical professionals, the quality of healthcare facilities, and adherence to safety standards and protocols.

Bariatric relates to treatments aimed at weight reduction, especially in individuals with severe obesity. This includes medical, surgical, and behavioral interventions. Bariatric surgery, such as gastric sleeve or bypass, is often a last resort for those who have struggled with losing weight through traditional methods.
Turkey is a leader in medical tourism because they have the cheapest prices, almost in the world,” says Jonathan Edelheit, the CEO of the Medical Tourism Association. But he shares concerns about the integrity of the industry that have proliferated in recent months.
Another term for the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, the Roux bypass is highly regarded for its effectiveness in helping patients lose weight and improve health conditions related to obesity. Named after the French surgeon César Roux, this procedure is a combination of both restrictive and malabsorptive techniques. It requires a lifetime commitment to dietary changes, exercise, and regular follow-up with healthcare professionals.
Weight loss tablets are medications designed to help individuals lose weight by suppressing appetite or blocking fat absorption. Common examples include Orlistat, which reduces fat absorption, and phentermine, which is an appetite suppressant. These medications are typically prescribed to individuals with a BMI over 30 or those with obesity-related conditions.
The term bariatric refers to the branch of medicine focused on the prevention and treatment of obesity and related disorders. Bariatric procedures, such as gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy, are designed to help patients achieve significant, long-term weight loss when other methods like diet and exercise have failed.
Longer term risks and complications of gastric bypass can include:Bowel obstruction.Dumping syndrome, causing diarrhea, nausea or vomiting.Gallstones.Hernias.Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)Malnutrition.Stomach perforation.Ulcers.
Diarrhoea associated with gastritis can occur due to inflammation in the stomach affecting the intestines. This symptom often accompanies nausea, bloating, and abdominal pain. Managing diarrhea involves treating the underlying gastritis, typically with acid-reducing medications and dietary adjustments.
In the UK, slimming tablets are commonly prescribed or available over the counter to aid weight loss. Medications like Orlistat help block the absorption of fat, while appetite suppressants target hunger. These medications are often combined with lifestyle changes for better long-term results.
If it can go through a straw, or even a little thicker, it's OK (but don't actually use a straw, because this can make you drink too fast and cause discomfort).
The primary difference between mini gastric bypass surgery and a full gastric bypass is that the mini version of the surgery is performed in a modified manner that involves less intestinal rerouting and a shorter overall surgery time. After surgery, you should avoid nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as aspirin, ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) and naproxen (Aleve). NSAIDs increase the risk of stomach ulcers. Patients who had gastric bypass surgery should avoid these medications indefinitely. Bread, Rice... +More
