Explore Top Clinics for Gastric Sleeve

Gastric sleeve surgery, or sleeve gastrectomy, has emerged as a prominent solution for significant weight loss. This surgical procedure involves the removal of approximately  80% of the stomach. Thus, this results in a sleeve or banana-shaped stomach. It not only restricts food intake but also induces hormonal changes beneficial for weight loss.

What is Gastric Sleeve Surgery?
 

Doctors perform the procedure under general anesthesia, typically using a laparoscopic technique. This minimally invasive approach involves making small incisions. Through these incisions the doctor inserts a camera and surgical tools. The surgeon then removes a portion of the stomach and shapes the remainder into a sleeve. This process generally lasts between one to two hours. 

Gastric Sleeve Process
 

Preparing for gastric sleeve surgery involves several steps. Initially, patients undergo a comprehensive evaluation to determine their suitability for the surgery. Tests before the operation may include blood work, cardiac evaluation, and nutritional counseling. After surgery, patients must stick to a specific diet. This diet begins with liquids and gradually shifts to solid foods, under the guidance of a nutritionist.

Expectations: Before and After Gastric Sleeve
 

Patients undergoing gastric sleeve surgery can expect significant weight loss. It’s important to maintain a balanced diet and regular exercise to ensure sustainable results. Thus, you can avoid potential weight regain. 

Gastric Sleeve Surgery Cost
 

  • Gastric Sleeve in Turkey
    Turkey is renowned for combining quality healthcare with cost effectiveness in medical tourism. The average cost here ranges from €4,000 to €7,000. It is significantly lower than in many Western countries.
     
  • Gastric Sleeve in the UK
    In the UK, the cost is higher, usually between €10,000 and €15,000. The price difference depends on factors like healthcare foundation and surgeon fees.
     
  • Spain: €6,000 - €10,000
    Spain combines skilled surgeons with a robust healthcare system, providing gastric sleeve surgery at reasonable prices in a welcoming environment.
     
  • Poland: €4,500 - €8,000
    Poland is known for its high medical standards and affordability, making it an appealing choice for gastric sleeve surgery among international patients.
     
  • United States: €15,000 - €25,000
    The U.S. offers advanced medical technology and comprehensive care, but the costs for gastric sleeve surgery are among the highest globally.


Gastric Bypass vs. Gastric Sleeve Surgery Cost


Gastric bypass surgery is generally more expensive than gastric sleeve surgery. The increased cost relies on the complexity of the procedure, which involves rerouting and reconnecting the intestines. Other countries like the United States, Mexico, and India also offer gastric sleeve surgery. Their costs vary based on numerous factors including location, facility standards, and the surgeon's expertise.

Gastric Sleeve Treatment Near Me

This platform provides an extensive database of doctors and clinics specializing in gastric sleeve surgery across various countries. Furthermore, Wupdoc features user reviews, ratings, and lists of top doctors. Thus, it helps patients to make informed decisions about their healthcare. 

Gastric Sleeve Benefits and Potential Risks


Benefits
 

  • Significant Weight Loss: Patients typically lose an important portion of their excess weight within the first year post-surgery. 
  • Health Improvement: Conditions like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and obstructive sleep apnea often improve or resolve completely after surgery.
  • Reduced Appetite: Hormonal changes post-surgery often lead to reduced hunger, aiding in weight management. 


Risks
 

  • Nutritional Deficiencies: The reduced stomach size can lead to vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Therefore, the patient may need lifelong vitamin and mineral support.
  • Surgical Risks: As with any major surgery, there are risks of complications. These complications may include infection, bleeding, and adverse reactions to anesthesia.
  • Psychological Impact: The drastic change in lifestyle and dietary habits post-surgery can affect mental health. As a result, this may lead to the need of support and counseling.


In summary, this article provides a general overview of gastric sleeve surgery. It is essential for people considering this procedure to consult with healthcare professionals for personalized advice. Additionally, they should explore all treatment options.
