Gastric Sleeve Worldwide

My name is Fulya Aydın and I had my Gastric Sleeve procedure in August 2019 at the age of 41 and I can safely say it was the best choice I have ever made. I have struggled with my weight all my life. I was always the kid in school who was a ‘bit chubby’. İn my 20s the carefree lifestyle of alcohol and fast food. I was 30 when I noticed how big I had actually got, I was over 20stone and becoming dangerously overweight, I had a few health issues which included Hypertension and the worst thing was I couldn’t see any way out – exercise was a total struggle as I was just to unfit. My motivation was non-existent and all I wanted to do when I got home from work was either lay on the sofa, order a takeaway or sleep! Clothing was becoming an issue – I could only order clothes online. Also a big issue my daughter is growing up and I need to spend time with her. I tried many different diets. Many years my attitude was I was okay. I do not need anything. However, After my son was born I have put more weight and my lifestyle had been more change. My boy was so active and I did not have any energy. I was 40 when I made the decision to have the surgery. It was just after the summer of 2019 July.I weighed just shy of 22 stone- I knew I needed to do something but I am so scared then start to research and read different reviews. I got in touch with my consultant Dr Tufan Ergenc was helpful and understanding and advised me of the sleeve procedure – I knew it was the right thing to do and I just couldn’t wait for the procedure date to come around. Honestly, I was very stressful but I booked the surgery in August 2019. The Team were so helpful- every step of the way, they were contacting me and ensuring I was mentally prepared for my pre-op diet and offered me all the support I needed. The day of the surgery arrived and yes, I was nervous but I was excited to start my new life. The recovery period was as expected, sore for a couple of days – but after about a week the discomfort was subsiding. I could only eat soup and broth for a couple of weeks after but then after four weeks I started introducing solid foods and I’ve never looked back. My recovery was great! Five months out and I can tolerate all foods with no issues- the food I no longer eat .it’s all about making good lifestyle choices and for me that’s the key. Five months post op including my three-week pre-op diet and I have lost 25 kg. I feel active, healthy and no longer have the health issues I started with and most of all, I’m the happiest I have felt in years. My goal is to lose 55kg in total and I’m definitely going to achieve my goal! I use the gym 4/5 times a week and eat healthily, I definitely have control now which I didn’t have before my procedure. I am so pleased that I chose Dr Tufan Ergenc and his lovely energetically team and the support they have offered me has been great all the way through, so I would strongly recommend them to anyone considering weight loss surgery. Also, I would like to say thank you for the great team again and again

I had a gastric sleeve surgery at Apera.10 days after surgery and I feel great. During my stay in the hospital, everyone was kind and professional. I want to thank them for my new life. I would recommend everyone to decide to take this step and come to the Apera. THANK YOU ❤

Was the best choice going for my surgery to Erdem Hospital. The staff were very polite and friendly, they took care of everything I need. I would like to say a big thank you to all of them in special to Aynur, and to the coordinator Deniz who helped me with all the procedures and for being there whenever I needed her.

I had the gastric sleeve surgery and it was the best decision I have ever made. The hospital and the hotel were located in a beautiful region in Istanbul. Oguz from the Novemedical was very helpful from day one, they answered all my questions and concerns. Also, video call before coming gave me separate confidence. My doctor Necdet Derici, his assistant, his nutritionist and the hospital staff was excellent. It has been 4 months after the surgery, I lost 28 kg.

I had excellent service from the beginning of the process to post-op, the only reason that they don't get 5 stars is that the communication was a problem in the Hospital with no one speaking English. The translator was a great guy but unfortunately, he had his regular job at the Hospital so he was not always there to translate, this was a big problem for me with the nurses as we had to use our phones to translate which was not Ideal. The Hospital staff were excellent as were SAM Patient Services, It was excellent value and I'm seeing the benefits every day. I choose SAM Patients Services not just because of the competitive price but I got a good feeling from the staff which I was proved right when I met them when they came to Hospital all nice genuine people.

I had tummy tuck operation at Mayclinik. And also I m having perfect result after the surgery. All the procedures were going so fast. They organized everything so elegant, I stayed at a perfect hotel, having funny and hilarious transfer. I had amazing communication with Kadriye. She answered all questions and found solutions all my problem so vastly. Dr. Karaca helped me before the surgery, and he considered my claim and he did that operation however I want in my suitable body. Thank you so much Mayclinik and Kadriye.

Gastric Sleeve. The whole experience from start to finish was quick and efficient which I loved. I was received from the airport by Sevim who has been great throughout this experience with answering all my questions and providing me with all the information I need. There was no waiting around as soon as I reached the hospital, all the necessary tests were done immediately and I was prepped for my op the same day. The nurses at the hospital were lovely and helped immensely in my recovery, a huge thank you to them, Dr Ibrahim and Sevim.

I had a great team of doctors and nurses and nutritionist and front desk staff, very experienced, caring, helpful and warm people. I am very lucky to find Prof Dr Nurullah Bulbuller and Dr Mani Habibi to do my operation they are the best for gastric sleeve operations and I can strongly recommend anyone if they are thinking about the operation. Years of trying to lose weight with no success I decided to have the operation for a healthy future life, definitely the best value.

I travelled alone to Turkey to get the sleeve, I was picked up at the airport and looked after until dropped at hotel, I was well looked after lots of tests and always someone there if you need them. I would definitely recommend using the Heath store Turkey team life-changing surgery at an affordable price.

I had Gastric Sleeve by genius man and very attentive. All staff were very good and always willing to go above and beyond to help. Pain relief was always available without any problems. My journey from start to finish was coordinated by Fatih who’s very trustworthy and keeps to his word. Very very professional people. I’ll be going back for cosmetic surgery in the future. The clinic was very well equipped with all the medical stuff. Very high cleanliness standards my room was cleaned several times a day. I have no issues what so ever and I recommend this Hospital 1000%.

My experience with Clinichub has been great from start to finish! 😊 I struggled with my weight for all my life and finally decided that do something about it and started researching weight-loss surgeries and came across the gastric sleeve. So I started my enquiry with Clinichub, chatting with my lovely Coordinator and had a consultation, my surgeon, before booking my surgery! My coordinator made sure that I knew everything about the process, what to expect, how to prepare myself, etc. Then I booked my flights, packed and was mentally ready to do this for myself so I could lose this excess weight that was holding me back from enjoying many things in life. I arrived at the airport late at night, the driver was already waiting for me and escorted me to this 5-star hotel, my room was very neat and clean. There was an amazing breakfast buffet which I was not able to ENJOY ☹ as I was already on my fluid diet. Anyways, I was informed by my coordinators about the plan for the day. I got up and get ready for the tests and was taken to the hospital by the driver. I finally I met Asuman in the hospital who had been helping all through my booking process and she guided me in there as well and made sure everything went well super smoothly. The dietitian was also amazing, she explained a lot of things to me made sure everything was clear about my diet and brought me my supplements to use later. I also got to meet other patients who were having surgery on the same day as me which helped lessen my anxiety, you know seeing other people go through the same experiences and supporting each other. I met my surgeon prior to my surgery, and he was very kind and gave me confidence that everything would go well. He also made sure I felt comfortable and cared for afterwards. The nurses were lovely and very attentive. Even though I was in pain in my first day, pain relief was provided, they helped me walk and felt so much BETTER after taking my first shower, relieved and renewed. By the time I got discharged, I was feeling so good like I haven’t even had surgery and I kept thinking “WHY HAVE I DELAYED THIS FOR SO LONG?” So overall, I was impressed with the quality of the service and even though I was nervous to travel by myself, I felt comfortable and welcomed during my whole stay. So MASSIVE THANK YOU to Clinichub for the journey and my doctor, all the coordinators, nurses, drivers, hotel staff! I’ll be definitely back for my tummy and referring my family and friends 😊

I had Gastric Sleeve surgery in October with Dr Metin Karadeniz. I would highly recommend the surgeon, I was informed at every stage and received fantastic treatment throughout my stay. I have had no complications following my surgery, I have access to the surgeon and dietician who I am in regular contact with. The post operative plan is clear and allowed me to make a speedy recovery. From initially landing in Izmir the team took care of my every need! Dr Karadeniz is an expert in obesity and gastric sleeve/bypass surgery. I was in safe hands with this team!

My experience from the beginning until the end was brilliant. I felt very well taken care of by the doctor Fatma Soysuren and her team. The city, the hotel, the hospital, everything was amazing. I couldn't be happier with my new nose. I recommend everyone to choose Dr. Fatma Soysuren.

The treatment plan was perfect and all services applied in the hospital was perfect. Many thanks to the clinic and staff and all doctors.
