About Direct Healthcare International Limited - Antwerp

Direct Healthcare International was formed to meet a demand for low cost surgery using hospitals in Belgium, where the surgical standards are second to none. With this aim in mind we sought to use surgeons that we knew by reputation, CV history, and surgical history. These surgeons in order to qualify to be accepted by Direct Healthcare International Limited need to demonstrate a proven track record and in addition carry out a minimum of 250 surgeries a year in their discipline. This we felt sure were criteria that would find excellent experienced tried and tested surgeon and indeed have proved so.

I have maintained the weight loss

5 50 Gastric Bypass • Paid: 8995 €

I had my gastric bypass (RNY) surgery 3 years ago (01/06/2012) with Dr De Clerqc in Antwerp and I could not be more thrilled.
I lost my excess weight rapidly but safely over 7 months and plateaued at 58kg (from a 125kg pre op weight) and have maintained the loss ever since.
I no longer have sleep apnea and my blood work shows me as healthy as an ox these days!
Dr De Clerqc was excellent and responsive and gave great after surgery care. I recommend him to anyone. He changed my life.
This was the best money I ever spent on myself and I haven't regretted it for a second.

Excellent from start to finish. Thorough, professional, kind and above all, excellent in what they do.
Dr De Clerqc was an amazing surgeon, I have barely noticeable scars and everything was arranged well through Direct Healthcare International. Private room, excellent nursing staff (who all spoke English) and extremely thorough pre op tests to determine if you are well enough to be successful during and after the op.
