Dr. Mehmet Altuğ Kazak devoted 9 years to sleeve gastrectomy surgery. Dr. Kazak has gained popularity among patients from more than 20 countries and has become a preferred name in this field by successfully performing more than 2000 sleeve gastrectomy surgeries.

One of the most skilled surgeons specializing in weight loss procedures, Dr. Kazak offers its services in Turkey, in the cities of Istanbul and Mersin.

We specialize in performing a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, a procedure in which approximately 80 percent of the stomach is surgically removed. This results in rapid weight loss and a feeling of satiety for the patient. The hospital stay for this procedure is usually 3 nights, including the day of the operation.

When you arrive the day before the surgery, our transportation coordinator will meet you at the airport and provide transportation to the hospital. Under the supervision of our medical team, you will undergo a series of medical examinations such as blood tests, cardiology, internal medicine, psychiatry, ultrasound and anesthesiology evaluations. These tests will help ensure your suitability for surgery. If no problems are detected during the checkup, the surgery will be performed the next day.

Our medical team does not use medical drainage and Dr. Kazak uses a double suture technique to minimize the risk of complications during surgery. You will be encouraged to walk within 3 hours after the procedure.

The price includes pre-operative tests, the surgery itself, a four-day hospital stay with accommodation for a companion, airport transfers for both individuals, and unlimited follow-up sessions with a nutritionist tailored to each patient’s needs, at the end of which you leave the hospital.
