Weight Loss Surgery Consultation

Understand which approach may suit you.

A weight loss surgery consultation is a structured assessment, not a commitment to surgery. Your weight history, previous attempts, eating habits, medical conditions and medications are reviewed, and your body mass index (BMI) is calculated.

Treatment process

  1. 01

    Before treatment

    You share your height, weight, medical history and previous weight loss attempts. Blood tests and other investigations may be arranged before your visit.

  2. 02

    Treatment day

    In the clinic, a detailed assessment is completed — including examination and, where needed, endoscopy or further tests. Options are discussed with you.

  3. 03

    After treatment

    You receive a written summary of the recommended path, including preparation steps if surgery is advised.

  4. 04

    Follow-up

    If you proceed, a preparation programme — often including a pre-operative diet — begins. Psychological and dietetic support may be part of the plan.

Expectations & recovery
