I will forever cherish all the care

5 50 Gastric Sleeve

Thank you so much for the patient care portrayed. I will forever cherish all the care, from the time I took the knowledge of the Sleeve procedure to Airport pick-up, tests, scans and the painless procedure and aftercare.

Much hugs to these special people Luca the medical consultant, Dr Farouq, Nurses and the beautiful Translation team (Abir and Nohad), you left me to play my music the whole night without disturbance.

Team keeps checking on me even when I left close to 2 weeks ago. Lost 5kgs in 9 days. Can't wait to share my journey with you. I miss you all already and love you.

The surgeon is great, seems to know what he’s doing and is very professional

4.5 50

I had my surgery with Aktif at vital hospital with Dr Ibrahim Agackiran on the 4th of July 2023. Dr Ibrahim is great, seems to know what he’s doing and is very professional. The surgery went well, and I’m currently down 7 kg in 1 week!!

Here are some pros and cons of the surgery and some things to think about if you want to have the surgery.

Pros:
+The surgeons/doctors at the facility are very professional and good at their job.
+The guide/translator Luca was great, super nice and helpful.
+I feel great after the surgery but it's a huge adjustment.
+They’ve been very helpful at answering all my questions now afterwards and they are quick to reply to you.

Cons:
- Most of the nurses at the facility don’t speak English so it’s hard to communicate with them but they are very friendly and try their best to help you.
-I wasn't given proper info/instructions about my medications (especially the blood thinner syringes I had to give myself). I had to kinda figure it out on my own. I wish they would have shown me how to do it while I was at the hospital.
-I wasn’t told how to properly care for the wounds/incisions after the surgery so two of them are infected now. I tried to care for them to the best of my ability and they will hopefully clear out in a couple of days with the antibiotics.
-Doctors in Sweden don’t want to help me as much now because I’ve had surgery abroad.

Gastric Balloon (15 mins)

Gastric Balloon - Aktif International Hospitals - Obesity
The Gastric Balloon is a non-surgical weight loss procedure that involves placing a silicone balloon in the stomach to promote feelings of fullness and reduce food intake. The procedure requires two visits: the first to place the balloon and the second, after 6 to 12 months, to remove it.
