Prices
Surgery prices in Turkey: what UK patients should know
Private gastric sleeve surgery in the UK typically costs £9,000–£13,000. In Antalya, all-inclusive packages typically cost 50–70% less — for surgery performed by IFSO-member surgeons in a fully licensed private hospital, with a 5-star hotel recovery by the Mediterranean. The difference is economics, not standards.
The honest answer
Why is surgery so much cheaper in Turkey?
Three reasons — and none of them is lower quality. First, the cost of running a hospital in Turkey (staff, premises, services) is a fraction of UK costs. Second, the pound goes much further against the Turkish lira. Third, high-volume centres like ours operate efficiently: our surgeons have performed more than 18,000 bariatric procedures, and volume brings both safety and economy.
What you should compare is not just price, but what the price buys: who performs the operation, where, and what happens afterwards. A UK private quote typically covers the operation and hospital stay. An Antalya package covers your entire journey — which is why comparing headline numbers alone understates the difference.
Expert surgeons
A professor of surgery and a fellowship-trained bariatric surgeon — IFSO and EAES members — perform every operation personally.

A note on transparency
Why we don't publish a price list
Because an honest price depends on you. Your BMI, medical history, the procedure your surgeon actually recommends after assessment, and how long you stay all shape the final package. Clinics that advertise one headline number online often attach conditions to it on arrival — that's exactly the experience we exist to avoid.
Instead, we do it in one step: send your details, and within 24 hours you receive a fixed, personal quote in pounds — valid for your case, with the full inclusion list in writing, and no obligation to proceed.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
How much cheaper is weight loss surgery in Turkey than in the UK?
Private gastric sleeve surgery in the UK typically costs £9,000–£13,000, and gastric bypass £10,000–£15,000. All-inclusive packages in Antalya typically cost 50–70% less. The difference reflects Turkey's lower operating costs and exchange rate — not lower clinical standards.
Why don't you publish package prices online?
