Why Patients Choose Turkey for Bariatric Care
Turkey is a leading destination for Bariatric surgery, offering experienced surgeons, internationally accredited hospitals, and comprehensive care for international patients. Procedures such as gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, and revision weight loss surgery are often available at a fraction of UK and US costs without compromising on quality.
Most candidates have a BMI of 40+, or 35+ with obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or sleep apnoea. Our specialists assess every case individually and recommend the most appropriate treatment, including non-surgical options when suitable.
At Lifeline Turkey, we provide a personalised treatment plan, transparent all-inclusive pricing, and dedicated support from consultation through long-term follow-up.
A glimpse into our surgical facilities and patient journey
A simple, guided path from first contact to full recovery
Send your height, weight, and medical history. Our team confirms your eligibility and recommends the right procedure, with a fixed quote, usually within 24 hours.
We book your hotel and transfers, brief you on the pre-operative diet, and schedule your surgery and tests around your travel dates.
On arrival you complete blood work, an ECG, imaging, and specialist consultations, then confirm your surgical plan in person.
Your surgery is performed laparoscopically in an accredited hospital, with your coordinator alongside you and a 2 to 3 night monitored stay.
You recover at your hotel with clear instructions, then your team supports your nutrition and progress after you return home.
Real Patient Experiences
United Kingdom
"I waited two years on the NHS list and got
nowhere. Lifeline arranged my gastric sleeve in weeks. The hospital was spotless, the surgeon
explained everything, and I have lost over 40 kilos. Best decision I have made."
United Arab Emirates
"My type 2 diabetes was out of control. After
my gastric bypass my blood sugar is normal and my medication is down to almost nothing. The
whole team treated me with respect from start to finish."
Germany
"What sold me was the honesty. They recommended a
sleeve over the bypass I asked about and explained exactly why. Transparent pricing, no
surprises, and the aftercare plan kept me on track."
Bariatric Surgery in Turkey
Most patients qualify with a BMI of 40 or above, or 35
and above with a condition such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnoea. Some
patients with a lower BMI qualify when diabetes is poorly controlled. Send your details and we
confirm your eligibility quickly.
Plan for 5 to 7 days. That covers your pre-operative assessment, a
2 to 3 night hospital stay, and a short hotel recovery before you are cleared to fly
That depends on your BMI, your health, and your goals. The
sleeve suits most patients. Bypass is stronger for severe obesity and diabetes. A balloon is a nonsurgical option for lower BMIs. Your surgeon recommends the right one after your assessment.
