Low BMI Sleeve in Europe

Hi,

I am approved and scheduled to have surgery in Mexico in a couple of months. I live in Europe and I feel that its too far. I am young and honestly scared of travelling so far on my own for surgery. I have not found a doctor in Europe that is willing to operate on someone with a BMI under 35. Mine is 32-33. Does anyone know of any doctors or clinics in Europe that performs sleeves on someone with my bmi range? Thank you.

I don't have any input other than to say I can imagine that's a very tough decision. I hope you're able to find a doctor closer to home.


- No idea what I'm doing but I'm here! :)

Where are you from in Europe? I would look at Greece or Bulgaria (private clinics of course). It'll be pricier than Mexico but you'll save the cost of the overseas flight. That's where I would have gotten mine done next summer but there would be too much family drama for me to do it over there.

I'm sorry to hear about your family drama. I hope it gets better and thar you can have your surgery soon. I will definitely look into Bulgaria & Greece :)
