    Not Eastern Europe but I highly recommend Dr. Chris DeBruyne in Belgium. I had MGB with him in January and I’m down nearly 60lbs already. There have been no complications and everything has been easier than I ever imagined. I had a lapband removed at the same time. Any questions, feel free to ask.

    Hi Elsie, thanks for your reply. Belgium is a country I've been looking at actually so it's nice to hear a review about it! It seems to be quite competitively priced in comparison to the UK or Switzerland. Can I ask- what were the deciding factors in choosing the MGB instead of the full RNY?

    Well I had the RNY BYPASS but I'm in Australia.

    I've gone from 146kgs to 75kgs :)

    Hi,

    That's great to hear. How did the surgery go? Have you experienced many bumps in the road? I'm in Switzerland- pretty much the most expensive country in the world for just about anything so having surgery here is not an option for me unfortunately. I'm just a bit worried about having an op in one country and recovering in another.


  3. Hi all,

    I'm new to this forum and wanted to garner some opinions on having a gastric bypass in Poland or other eastern european countries. I'm 26 years old and have been a yo-yo dieter since I was a teenager, I'm currently 120kg (12 months ago, I was 85kg). I'm sick of the constant cycling and feel the bypass will be one of the tools I can use to maintain a steady weight.

    From everything I have read about the procedure, I've found myself favoring the bypass over the sleeve. So if you have experience of having a sleeve/ bypass op in Europe please get in touch, I'd be keen to have your input.

    Jordan.
