Gastric sleeve, gastric bypass and revision surgeries - brief information

Gastric bypass and gastric sleeve surgery are the most commonly used surgical methods in the treatment of obesity nowadays.  Gastric sleeve surgery and Gastric bypass surgery have become popular because they are performed with a closed method (laparoscopic method) and also because there is very rapid recovery and fewer complications.  Gastric sleeve and gastric bypass surgeries are performed safely thanks to the increased experience of surgeons and the developing technology.

People struggling with obesity from many European countries such as Germany, France, England, Spain, Netherlands, Italy prefer our country - Turkey for treatment.  Surgical methods such as sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass are safely performed in our country, Turkey.

I am Op. Dr. Volkan Arayıcı, for many years, I have helped many people struggling with obesity from many countries of the world such as Germany, France, Ireland, United Kingdom, Spain, America, Qatar, Dubai, Australia, Netherlands, Switzerland, and Dominica and led my patients to a healthier life by performing sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, and revision surgery.

Going to a foreign country for surgery from a different country can be frightening.  As soon as you reach us, the coordinators who speak your language will inform you about the process.  From the moment you arrive in Turkey, our coordinators will be with you throughout the entire process.

A total of four days of hospitalization is enough for sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass surgeries.  We will meet you at the airport and transfer you to the hospital where we will perform our surgery - via our VIP vehicles.  You will undergo a detailed pre-operative check-up at the hospital and the anesthesiologist will see you last.  If there is no problem, you will undergo surgery.

You will start walking alone two hours after your surgery.  On the third day after the operation, after all the information is given, you will be dropped off at the airport again via a VIP vehicle.  After you go home, our coordinators will not stop communicating with you and we will continue to answer all your questions.

The doctor you choose and the materials used by the doctor are very important for sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, and revision surgery.  The surgeon you will choose must be specialized in bariatric surgeries and have performed at least 1000 operations.  The surgeon you choose should be available 24/7 a day.  There should be very few negative comments in your research on the internet about the surgeon.  Devices, called 'staplers' are used in gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, and revision surgeries.  They are expensive products and about five of them are used in one surgery.  Two big and leading companies in the world are selling these products. Staples of one of these companies, Johnson & Johnson, are used in our clinic.  Because these materials are expensive, many clinics use cheap Chinese-made staples to reduce costs.  These cheap Chinese-made products also lead to many complications.  Keep these imitation cheap staplers in mind when thinking about why a clinic offers cheap prices.
