Bariatric Surgery at Acibadem Bodrum Hospital
The hospital provides surgical solutions for selected patients with obesity and obesity-related health problems, especially when diet, physical activity, and non-surgical methods have not achieved sufficient results.

Sleeve Gastrectomy and Gastric Bypass
Bariatric surgery techniques available at the hospital include sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass. The type of procedure is not selected based on weight alone, but according to the patient’s medical condition, body mass index, eating habits, and associated diseases.
