Verified review.
What worried me most was the recovery process and how I would feel after the operation. But actually, I feel better than I expected. The surgeon inspired a great deal of confidence right from the start: he showed me which part of my stomach would be removed and explained realistic expectations regarding weight loss, which was very important to me. I was particularly touched that he came to see me in person after the procedure. The operation itself was laparoscopic, and I only spent two nights in the clinic. Even after I was discharged, the team haven’t been out of touch — they’re always available if I have any questions.
Everything went absolutely brilliantly! And best of all, there was such great support – I never felt alone!
