Metabolic surgery is bariatric surgery planned with a primary focus on improving metabolic disease, especially type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. For many patients, the goal is not only a lower number on the scale, it is better blood sugar control, fewer medications, and lower long-term risk.
These are typically the same core procedures used in bariatric surgery (sleeve or bypass-type procedures). The difference is how the case is evaluated and prioritized, based on diabetes history, medications, reflux risk, and metabolic goals, then matched to the safest option.
Sleeve gastrectomy: €2,300
Mini gastric bypass: €2,800
Important note
The final plan depends on diabetes severity, medications (including insulin), reflux risk, BMI, and overall medical profile. We confirm eligibility and safest option after evaluation.
Medical assessment and procedure planning
Procedure fee for the confirmed plan
Standard anesthesia and hospital costs for the procedure
In-hospital monitoring and discharge guidance (plan dependent)
Written post-op diet, supplement, and recovery instructions
Post-op check(s) during your medical stay
Flights
Hotel accommodation
Transfers and local transport
Extra nights outside the medical plan
Additional treatments not listed in your confirmed plan
Hotels and transfers are not included. If you want, we can arrange hotel options and private transfers quoted separately.
Tell us your height, weight, and your metabolic goals (diabetes control, medication reduction, metabolic syndrome improvement). We will recommend the safest option.
To speed up your evaluation, include:
Height, weight, age
Type 2 diabetes duration and latest HbA1c (if known)
Current diabetes medications (including insulin)
Blood pressure, cholesterol, fatty liver, sleep apnea (if present)
Prior abdominal surgeries
Your travel window and preferred dates
Main goal: improved metabolic control (often type 2 diabetes), plus weight loss
Common options: sleeve gastrectomy, mini gastric bypass
Hospital stay: plan dependent
Early priorities: hydration, protein, walking, glucose monitoring routines
Long-term requirement: follow-up labs, diet structure, supplements when advised
Honest expectation: improvement is common, guarantees are not ethical
You may be a good candidate if:
Type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome is a major concern
Medical management is not giving stable control
You are ready for structured nutrition and follow-up long-term
You understand medication changes must be managed safely
You want a plan focused on risk reduction, not quick fixes

Sleeve reduces stomach volume and influences appetite signals. It can improve diabetes and metabolic markers in many patients, especially when paired with consistent nutrition and sustained weight loss.
Bypass-type procedures can produce stronger metabolic effects for selected patients, but they require strict long-term nutrition planning and supplement compliance. Suitability depends on medical profile and reflux risk.
Potential improvements can include:
Better blood sugar control and reduced medication needs
Improved insulin sensitivity
Improvement of blood pressure and lipid profile in many patients
Lower long-term risk from obesity-related disease
Outcomes vary by baseline disease severity, duration of diabetes, and follow-up compliance.
Most plans include:
Blood tests and medical clearance
Specialist clearance when required
Imaging or endoscopy when indicated
Nutrition plan and supplement planning
Diabetes monitoring plan for the travel and immediate post-op period
If diabetes control or other risks need optimization before surgery, we address that first.
Hospital monitoring and early walking
Diet progression in phases under guidance
Follow-up checks before you travel home
A structured plan for hydration, protein, and glucose monitoring
Your clinical team’s instructions override general timelines.
Metabolic surgery succeeds when long-term requirements are respected:
Diet structure and protein intake
Supplements when advised
Regular lab monitoring and follow-up
A realistic lifestyle plan to prevent relapse
This is not optional, it is how you avoid complications.
Risks vary by procedure and patient profile. They can include bleeding, infection, clots, leaks, reflux changes, nutritional deficiencies, intolerance to certain foods, and the need for revision in some cases.
Your evaluation determines your risk profile and which procedure is safest.
Metabolic surgery planning is stricter than cosmetic travel because diabetes control and medication management must be handled carefully. We coordinate steps so travel timing does not push unsafe decisions.
You send height, weight, diabetes history (duration), current medications (especially insulin), and HbA1c if available.
We confirm which option is safer for your metabolic goals and what risks matter most in your case.
You receive a pre-op checklist and medication questions to resolve before scheduling.
We confirm expected hospital timeline and what you need to plan after discharge.
In-person evaluation and final plan confirmation.
Pre-op checks according to your medical profile.
Surgery in a contracted hospital with post-op monitoring.
Discharge planning with written diet stages, hydration targets, and red-flag symptoms.
You follow the staged diet plan and start long-term routines as instructed.
You can send updates and questions during recovery.
We advise what follow-up labs and diabetes monitoring you should do locally, and what changes require urgent medical attention.
Flights, hotels, and transfers are not included in procedure pricing. If you want, we can arrange hotel options and private transfers based on your preferences and dates, quoted separately.
Planning that prioritizes metabolic safety (medications, monitoring, realistic procedure selection).
Clear written instructions for diet stages and follow-up expectations.
Structured coordination so you complete the checks you need before flying home.
Usually it refers to the same procedures, planned with a stronger focus on diabetes and metabolic outcomes rather than weight alone.
No. Many patients improve, some reduce medications significantly, but results vary and depend on disease history and long-term follow-up.
Use the form above and include your height, weight, diabetes history, HbA1c if known, and current medications.
For patients whose primary focus is overall weight loss and obesity-related risk reduction, with the full set of options including balloon.
