FAQ about Obesity operations in Turkey

What are the requirements for pre-procedure preparation?

Before undergoing bariatric surgery in Turkey, patients are required to complete a series of preoperative tests to ensure they are fit for the procedure. These tests often include an electrocardiogram (ECG), chest X-ray, and an esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Additionally, patients will have consultations with a bariatric surgeon and a nutritionist to discuss their health and dietary habits. It’s crucial for patients to follow any specific instructions provided during these consultations to prepare adequately for surgery.

How long does the bariatric surgery typically take?

The duration of bariatric surgery can vary depending on the specific type of surgery being performed and the individual patient’s condition. However, most procedures are completed within several hours. Patients should confirm the expected duration with their surgeon during the consultation phase.

What is the expected recovery time after the surgery?

Recovery from bariatric surgery typically involves a hospital stay of about 3 days, followed by an additional recovery period in a hotel for about 5 days, as included in the standard package for medical tourists in Turkey. However, full recovery can take several weeks, during which patients must follow strict dietary guidelines and gradually reintroduce physical activity.

What are the possible risks and complications of bariatric surgery?

  • Infection
  • Bleeding
  • Issues related to anesthesia
  • Nutritional deficiencies
  • Gastrointestinal problems such as nausea and vomiting

Patients are advised to discuss all potential risks with their surgeon prior to the operation.

What kind of post-operative care will be required?

After bariatric surgery, patients will need to adhere to a special diet prescribed by a nutritionist and take prescribed medications to manage pain and reduce the risk of complications. Regular follow-up examinations are also necessary to monitor the patient’s progress and make any necessary adjustments to their post-operative care plan.

When can I return to work or resume normal activities after the bariatric surgery?

Patients typically can return to work and resume normal activities within a few weeks post-surgery, depending on the nature of their job and rate of recovery. It is important to follow the surgeon’s advice and not rush the recovery process.

How many follow-up appointments are needed after the bariatric surgery?

Patients will generally require several follow-up appointments to monitor their recovery and progress. These appointments will be scheduled with the bariatric surgeon and nutritionist, and are crucial for ensuring a successful outcome.

Will I need to take specific medications or follow a special diet post-surgery?

Yes, patients will need to take medications to manage pain and prevent infection. A special diet, typically starting with liquids and gradually including soft and then solid foods, will be necessary to allow the digestive system to heal properly.

What should I do if I experience complications or unusual symptoms after the bariatric surgery?

If any complications or unusual symptoms occur, such as excessive pain, fever, or abnormal discharge, patients should contact their surgeon immediately. Timely medical intervention is important to address any potential issues quickly.

What are the costs involved in this bariatric surgery, including additional expenses?

The total cost for bariatric surgery in Turkey is approximately £3750. This price typically includes the surgery itself, preoperative tests, post-op medications, consultations, and accommodation and transfers during the stay. However, patients should be prepared for potential additional expenses such as further medications or extended hotel stays, if necessary.

How do I manage pain and discomfort during the recovery process?

Pain and discomfort post-surgery can be managed through prescribed medications. It’s also important to follow the surgeon’s recommendations regarding rest and limited physical activity during the initial recovery phase.

Are there any restrictions on physical activities or travel post-operation?

After bariatric surgery, patients are generally advised to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for a certain period. Travel, especially long flights, may also need to be postponed until the surgeon confirms it is safe to do so.

Can I expect any visible scarring or other lasting effects from the bariatric surgery?

Some scarring can be expected from the surgical incisions, though these are typically minimal and may fade over time. The surgery may also result in significant changes in body shape and size, which are generally positive but require adjustments in lifestyle to maintain.

This detailed overview should help patients from the UK considering bariatric surgery in Turkey to understand what to expect in terms of procedure, recovery, and care requirements.
