I'm looking into it too. Its so complicated to find a place you can trust... It so much less expensive though. Hopefully this gets more replies soon

I'm thinking of going during the last week of October. So our dates are really close. I'm still deciding on clinics. Which one are you going to?

Hi! I'm looking at ERDEM as well. I found another clinic called Irmet and it's 3900 with them. Finding reviews and information/research on these clinics is not the easiest thing. I'm nervous about going to Turkey too. When are you planning on going?
I was at erdem hospital i did my sleeve at 25 december it was great

I am currently waiting for surgery-in less than two hours. I am having surgery in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with a surgeon that came highly recommended by Australians and Brits. We currently live in China so we were traveling here on winter holiday SO it did make sense to come here. Cost of my surgery was just $6700 or 5850 Euros-which included everything, but not travel expenses, but again we were already coming here so to me I don't include that in my expenses.

Hi Guys,

I'm booked to have my sleeve done in Istanbul at Turkiye Hastanesi hospital from Dr Erol Vural. Just wondered if anyone has been here before?

I stumbled across an article about a 25 year old guy from England who died last December after having a sleeve in Turkey and now I'm nervous as hell 😔

Any success stories about surgery in Turkey would be most welcome.

Thanks in advance

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
