Dr. Kaya has attended global medical congresses focusing on diabetes, obesity, and laparoscopic surgery.

Surgical treatment options
The clinic provides two primary surgical methods for significant, lasting weight loss. These procedures use laparoscopic techniques to minimize scarring and shorten the healing process.
- Gastric sleeve. This surgery removes about 80% of the stomach. It lowers the hunger hormone ghrelin and leads to substantial weight loss. The recovery allows a return to routine within one week.
- Gastric bypass. The Roux-en-Y technique creates a small stomach pouch and reroutes the digestive tract. This method combines restriction with malabsorption and often helps resolve type 2 diabetes.
Non-surgical weight loss methods
For patients seeking alternatives to surgery, the clinic offers endoscopic procedures that require no incisions and have shorter recovery times.
- Gastric balloon. A silicone balloon is placed in the stomach for 6 to 12 months to provide portion control. The procedure takes about 30 minutes under sedation.
- Gastric Botox. This involves injecting Botulinum toxin into the stomach wall to slow digestion. It helps control appetite for up to 6 months with an immediate return to normal activities.
Weight loss packages
The clinic organizes logistics for international patients through structured packages. These often include more than just the medical procedure to help make the stay in Istanbul smooth.
- Pre-operative diagnostics. All necessary tests and a surgeon consultation are performed before the procedure.
- Hospital and hotel stay. Packages typically include 1 night in the hospital and 2 nights at a partner hotel like the Land Park Hotel.
- VIP logistics. Private transfers between the airport, hotel, and clinic are included.
- Follow-up care. Post-operative check-ups and 24/7 patient coordination are part of the aftercare protocol.
