How Much Does Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) Cost in Turkey?

The cost of endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) in Turkey typically ranges from $4,500 to $7,500. Pricing varies depending on the clinic, the gastroenterologist’s experience, the use of advanced suturing devices, and whether you need an overnight hospital stay. In the United States, the average cost is $11,000 (per ASMBS). That means ESG in Turkey is about 45% less expensive than in the U.S.

Turkish clinics usually include pre-op evaluation, anesthesia, ESG procedure with FDA-approved endoscopic suturing systems, hospital stay (if needed), medications, and post-procedure follow-up. In the U.S., prices often only cover the procedure itself, with anesthesia, hospital fees, and follow-up billed separately. Always confirm exactly what’s included with your chosen clinic.

FAQ about Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) in Turkey

These FAQs come from real patients seeking medical assistance through Bookimed. Answers are given by experienced medical coordinators and trusted clinic representatives.

What is the level of medicine in Turkey?

Healthcare is the key development sector of the Turkish government. The Turkish authorities are convinced that care for the citizens' health should be an absolute priority of state policy and spend about 77 billion liras for healthcare annually.

As a result, 28,000 medical facilities provide excellent medical care in the country. About 50 centers have certificate of JCI (Joint Commission International), the international improver of healthcare quality and safety across the globe. The index of certificates obtained is the largest. To compare, Israel has 20 JCI-accredited facilities, and Germany — only 10 clinics of this type.

What hotel services are provided here?

In Turkey, hotels of different price ranges and service levels are presented. The level of Turkish hotels is comparable to hotels in Tunisia, Morocco or Egypt. Most tourists choose 4 and 5 star hotels with all-inclusive meals. Such hotels have everything for a comfortable stay: varied food, a large well-groomed territory, animation for children and adults. Some hotels have their own water park, which guests can use for free. Budget travelers can afford to book an economical 3-star hotel with half board or no meals at all.

When is the best time to travel to Turkey?

The main advantage of Turkish resorts is the long beach season. On the Mediterranean coast, it starts in April and lasts until November. In the resorts of the Aegean Sea — from May to October. The most comfortable time for swimming is from mid-June to the end of October. A large influx of tourists is in July-August, when the air temperature is +38°C, and the water warms up to +27°C.

Do I need a visa?

In 2020, the Republic of Turkey has visa-free agreements with 89 states. Some foreigners are exempted from obtaining entry visas, others are required to receive an electronic visa (e-Visa), and still others must apply for a visa at Turkish missions abroad.
