Bariatric surgery such as sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass is offered to international patients at many accredited hospitals in India. Suitability depends on BMI, related conditions and a full assessment. Long-term results depend on diet and follow-up after you go home. So we plan the dietetic follow-up before you travel.
Which procedures can international patients have?
- Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy
- Roux-en-Y and mini gastric bypass
- Revision surgery
- Endoscopic options where suitable
Conditions and their treatment journeys
- Severe Obesity & Metabolic Disease — Severe obesity and related type 2 diabetes treated with bariatric surgery where suitable, with long-term dietetic follow-up.
Read before you decide
What to prepare before your case review
- Height, weight and BMI history
- Blood sugar, thyroid and lipid tests
- Sleep study if you have sleep apnoea
- List of previous weight-loss attempts and medicines
Where in India is it done?
Hospitals with strong programmes in this area are concentrated in Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Chennai and Hyderabad. We suggest hospitals based on your case, not on a fixed list.
What does it cost?
We do not publish price tables. The cost of treatment depends on your diagnosis, the hospital, the room category and your recovery, so any single number would mislead you. Through the case review you receive written estimates from the hospitals themselves, side by side.
Medical decisions
IndiaMedica is not a hospital and does not give medical advice. Your treating specialists decide on your treatment.
Questions patients ask
Will I have follow-up after I go home?
Follow-up is part of the plan from the start. We help schedule teleconsultations with your surgical and dietetic team after you go home.
