Which Weight Loss Surgery Options Are Best For Me?

There are a few types of weight loss surgery, often referred to as Bariatric Surgery, that could work for you.

What Does Weight Loss Surgery Cost?

The costs of having weight loss surgery are made up of a number of sources:

  • Hospital charges for bed stay
  • Hospital charges for operating theatre session
  • Equipment used in the operating theatre session. This includes the gastric band itself or for other weight loss operations, the stapling devices.
  • Professional fees charged by the surgeon, anaesthetist and assistant
