The cost of endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) in Spain typically ranges from $5,500 to $8,500. Prices vary depending on the hospital, the gastroenterologist’s experience, anesthesia type, and whether additional support (such as nutritionist follow-up) is included. In the United States, the average cost is $11,000 (per ASMBS). That means ESG in Spain is about 36% less than in the U.S.
Spanish clinics generally include pre-op assessment, the ESG procedure, anesthesia, a short hospital stay, and post-op follow-up. Some packages offer dietitian support and regular monitoring. In the U.S., the base price often covers only the procedure, with extra fees for anesthesia, hospital charges, and aftercare. Always confirm what each Spanish clinic includes in their ESG package.
