Revisional Bariatric Surgery Wroclaw

I travelled here from the United States to get gallbladder surgery in May 2025. The waiting list for gallbladder surgery in the U.S. is unbelievably long, unless it’s an emergency. I had already been following a very low-fat diet and hadn’t had an attack in months, but I knew it was a matter of time before I needed it out, so I looked into different clinics to see if there was another way. First off, I have a phobia of medical needles and surgery. I was treated extremely well, and I felt like my fears of needles and surgery were listened to. I could also schedule it to fit with when I would already be overseas, so they were flexible with dates, unlike in the U.S. i was able to stay the night before surgery in the hospital, and they kept me there for 24 hours after surgery as well (so 2 overnights total). They attended to me regularly after surgery to make sure I was doing well, and I felt cared for. I did wind up having an allergic reaction to the antibiotics a couple of hours before I was scheduled to leave, and they were prompt in getting me some meds to counteract that (I'm already allergic to another antibiotic, so I knew what it was when it was happening). The staff were great with following up and letting me know what to do for aftercare. I’m really glad I went to the KCM clinic - it is a couple of hours outside the main city of Wroclaw, though, so don’t make the same mistake I did and get a hotel in the city, though. But they do have a shuttle service, so that was very helpful. Also, if you DO happen to find yourself in Wroclaw (old town), there’s an amazing cat cafe called the Cat and Alice! Overall, I was very happy to find a good place to get my gallbladder out, where staff actually care about you and also will treat you like a human being, and not being charged $50 for a Tylenol or $500 for a mediocre breakfast (their food at KCM clinic is quite good and homemade there! amazing!) Everyone I spoke to in the U.S. thought I was a bit nuts for choosing to go to Europe for surgery, but it was the best decision I ever made - financially it was a no-brainer and with all the other reasons, i just did not entertain the possibility of getting it done stateside unless it was an emergency. I’m so thankful I had this opportunity and had a good experience despite my phobias. i felt very safe and cared for every step of the way.

I have nothing but good things to say about this clinic. My treatment from the time I came through the door was excellent 5 star. Dr Rafal Mulek was superb in his treatment of me. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking bariatric surgery.
