How it works
Treatment at the clinic —
from preparation to discharge
Monitoring in hospital, an agreed treatment plan and support for a whole year.
1Consultation and a treatment plan
The doctor checks your health, goes over your goals and arranges the tests needed to choose a suitable bariatric surgery method.
2Booking the surgery date
We secure a date for your surgery: you can pay the deposit by card at the clinic or by bank transfer online. The terms are fixed in the medical services contract
3Tests before surgery
Before the operation you undergo blood and urine tests, an ECG, an ultrasound and a gastroscopy and see specialists — the doctor hands you the exact list at the consultation.
4Surgery
Using the chosen method, the surgeon performs the bariatric surgery under general anaesthesia. Once it is over, the medical team monitors the patient.
5Inpatient stay
Once the operation is over, you stay in hospital supervised by doctors. Depending on its complexity and how you feel, this lasts from 1–3 to 4–5 days.
6Recovery
Scheduled check-ups after discharge follow your well-being, weight and test results, alongside advice on diet and recovery. For a year, the clinic team supports you.
At the consultation the doctor makes a plan and tells you how the surgery will go
The consultation is free, before surgery and with no obligation.

Surgery is prescribed only when clear criteria are met
- The patient's body mass index (BMI)
- Overall health and any related chronic conditions
- Earlier attempts to lose weight by conventional means have failed
BMI is the principal gauge of how advanced obesity is, found by dividing body weight (kg) by height squared (m²). Typically, a BMI above 40 — or above 35 with serious related conditions — justifies surgery. Some patients with lower values are considered for surgery too, if non-surgical options have failed.
People often confuse these two, though their aims are fundamentally different. Bariatric surgery is medical treatment of obesity and associated diseases. It changes the way the digestive tract works, acting on the causes of excess weight and on metabolism. Plastic surgery alters outer body contours and does not treat obesity or affect metabolism.
The four main types of bariatric surgery at City Medical Centre are sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, mini gastric bypass (MGB) and SADI-S duodeno-ileal bypass. Each method is matched individually to BMI, related conditions and the patient's goals.
Modern laparoscopic technique is what we use. Just 4 small punctures of 5 to 15 mm are needed for the operation. Cosmetic sutures mean the marks are nearly invisible after healing.
The recovery timeline depends on your activity. Office work: after 2–4 weeks. Physical work: after 1.5 months. Sport and activity: swimming allowed from 30 days, other exercise added gradually as weight comes down. Travel and holidays: best planned at least a month after surgery.
The diet evolves in steps — from liquids to soft, then solid food — with a focus on protein and limits on high-calorie, fatty food.
After bariatric surgery pregnancy is possible, yet doctors recommend at least 12–18 months of waiting. Meanwhile the body stabilizes, weight arrives at target values and nutritional status normalizes.
Yes, taking vitamins after bariatric surgery is mandatory. Because digestion is anatomically altered, the body absorbs some nutrients poorly, so regular vitamin and mineral supplements stay in the patient's life permanently.
Weight can come back after bariatric surgery, but this is very unlikely if you follow your doctor's advice. Proper nutrition, skipping high-calorie drinks and regular follow-up with City Medical Centre specialists are key.
