Medical tourism makes high quality and affordable weight loss surgery available to anyone. Turkey is one of the best destinations for patients who need bariatric surgery!
Bariatric surgery may be an option for adults with severe obesity, whose body mass index (BMI), a measure of height in relation to weight, is over 40, and who have serious health problems linked to obesity.
Bariatric surgery includes a variety of procedures; weight loss is achieved by reducing the size of the stomach with a gastric band or by removing a part of the stomach (sleeve gastrectomy, biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch) or by resecting and re-routing the small intestine to a small stomach pouch (gastric bypass surgery).
Procedures can be grouped into three main categories:
If you follow diet and exercise recommendations, you can keep most of the weight off. You will also need medical follow-up for the rest of your life.
The average price of bariatric surgery in Turkey is around $6,000. In the United States, the approximate cost of gastric bypass surgery is around $20,000, which shows the procedure in Turkey can be significantly cheaper.
Gastric Bypass Surgery | Average Price |
United States | $20,000 |
Turkey | $6,000 |
Every year more and more people travel to Turkey to have weight loss surgery. They choose medical tourism for obtaining treatment that may be far too expensive, in terms of time and money, in their home countries, and bariatric surgery is less expensive in Turkey.
