The full price list
Weight loss surgery Turkey prices — every procedure, one table
Below are all our weight loss surgery Turkey prices for 2026, quoted in pounds sterling. Each figure is a fixed package, not a starting bid: the gastric sleeve Turkey price of £3,000 already contains your tests, the operation, your hospital stay until discharge, every transfer inside İzmir and twelve months of follow-up. Nothing is added after you land.
| Procedure | All-inclusive price | Hospital stay | Usually suited to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gastric sleeve Turkey | £3,000 | 4 nights, until discharge | BMI 35+, first bariatric operation |
| Gastric bypass Turkey | £3,500 | 4 nights, until discharge | Higher BMI, type 2 diabetes, severe reflux |
| Mini gastric bypass Turkey | £3,500 | 4 nights, until discharge | Single connection, shorter operation |
| Gastric resleeve in Turkey | £3,500 | 4 nights, until discharge | Weight regain after a stretched sleeve |
| Gastric sleeve after ESG | £3,500 | 4 nights, until discharge | After a failed endoscopic sleeve |
| Gastric band removal and conversion | £3,500 / £3,800 | 4 nights, until discharge | Band out and sleeve (£3,500) or bypass (£3,800) in one operation |
| Gastric balloon Turkey | £1,200 / £2,100 | Endoscopic, no overnight stay | 6-month or 12-month balloon; removal £250 |
How to read the table
Look at the hospital column before the price column. Four nights on a ward is a different product from one night and a hotel room, however similar two quotes look. The last column matters too: a lower gastric sleeve Turkey cost is no bargain if your reflux or diabetes calls for a bypass. That is why we ask for your height, weight, age and medical history before quoting, not after.
Send your height, weight and age. You get a fixed price back, usually the same day.

Full transparency
What the gastric sleeve Turkey all inclusive package covers — and what it does not
"All inclusive" is used loosely in this industry, so here is exactly where our line sits. The gastric sleeve Turkey package runs from the moment you land in İzmir until twelve months after you fly home. The only large cost outside it is your flight, and we would rather say so here than at the airport.
Included in every package
- VIP transfer from İzmir airport straight to the hospital, and back to the airport on discharge
- Blood tests, abdominal ultrasound and echocardiogram
- Separate clearance from cardiology, pulmonology and anaesthesia
- The keyhole operation, performed by Op. Dr. Volkan Arayıcı personally
- Four nights in hospital until discharge — no hotel
- Medication, nursing care and an interpreter throughout your stay
- A two-bed room, three meals a day and transfers for one companion
- Twelve months of follow-up by video call and WhatsApp
- Treatment of any complication at no extra charge
Not included
- Flights — yours and your companion's. Fares swing too much by season and airport to bundle honestly
- Travel insurance, passport or visa costs
- Extra nights you add for sightseeing after discharge
- Personal spending
Why this matters more than the headline number. A £2,400 gastric sleeve Turkey package that leaves out the tests, adds a theatre fee on arrival and charges again if something goes wrong is not cheaper than £3,000. It only moves the moment you pay. If a clinic quotes a gastric sleeve Turkey all inclusive price with flights folded in, ask which airport and which month that fare assumes.
UK vs Türkiye
Gastric sleeve Turkey cost compared with a private UK clinic
Most British patients price the operation at home first. The gap is large, and it helps to know where it comes from before you decide.
| Procedure | UK private clinic | With us, in İzmir | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gastric sleeve | £8,000 – £13,000 | £3,000 | £5,000+ |
| Gastric bypass | £8,500 – £15,000 | £3,500 | £5,000+ |
| Gastric balloon | £3,000 – £5,000 | £1,200 | £1,800+ |
UK figures are ranges private clinics publish for self-funding patients and usually exclude the first consultation. Our column is the full gastric sleeve Turkey price, not a starting fee.
And the NHS?
On the NHS the operation is free, and if you qualify and can wait, that is the right route. Access is tightly rationed, though: generally a BMI of 40 or more, or 35 with a serious condition such as type 2 diabetes, plus a supervised weight-management programme before referral. Reported waits run to years. For most of our British patients the real choice is not Turkey or a private UK clinic, but treating this now or carrying the weight for another two or three years.
A lower price only counts if the result holds
More results are in our before and after gallery, and patients describe the whole trip in their own words in gastric sleeve Turkey experiences.
The question behind the price
Why is the gastric sleeve Turkey price lower — and when should it worry you?
A gastric sleeve Turkey price of £3,000 is not a discount on the operation. It is what the same operation costs to deliver where the economics differ. Dr. Arayıcı answers it on camera in why is gastric sleeve so cheap in Turkey.
The cost base, not the standard
Salaries, hospital overheads and indemnity in Türkiye run at a fraction of UK levels. Staplers, the laparoscopic tower and anaesthetic drugs come from the same global manufacturers at similar prices. Those are the parts that decide your safety, and they do not get cheaper.
Volume
Dr. Arayıcı has completed more than 5,000 bariatric operations and does nothing else. In bariatrics, higher case volume goes with fewer complications.
No middleman
You message the surgeon, the surgeon quotes you and the surgeon operates on you. No agency margin sits inside your price.
Five questions to ask any clinic, us included
- Will I stay in hospital until discharge, or move to a hotel the day after surgery?
- Is there an intensive care unit in the same building, and is the hospital JCI or TEMOS accredited?
- Which named surgeon operates, how many of these does he perform a year, and is he an IFSO member?
- Are cardiology, pulmonology and anaesthesia clearances included before surgery?
- If a complication occurs, who pays for treating it?
Cheap is not the danger signal; cheap because something essential was removed is. For figures rather than reassurance, read how safe is gastric sleeve surgery in Turkey and our gastric sleeve death rate in Turkey page.
How and when you pay
No deposit, no instalments, no second invoice
There is no deposit, no booking fee and nothing to transfer in advance. You pay the full gastric sleeve Turkey price in cash on the day of your operation, after you have arrived, had your tests and met the surgeon. We do not offer instalment plans or third-party finance, deliberately: one payment, one number, nothing owed afterwards.
What this means in practice. Nothing binds you until you are in İzmir. If cardiology, pulmonology or anaesthesia does not clear you, the operation is postponed and you have lost nothing but the flight.

Before you compare quotes
What sits behind a gastric sleeve Turkey cost
An advertised gastric sleeve Turkey cost ranges from about £2,400 to well over £4,000. Our figures are fixed; these six things explain the spread between clinics.
The surgeon's experience
Shorter anaesthesia, calmer handling of difficult anatomy, fewer complications. A quote far below the market often means a low-volume surgeon or one you meet only on the table.
The staplers
We use original, traceable devices from established manufacturers. Grey-market copies cost a fraction and are the one saving a patient can never see on a quote.
Your BMI
A higher BMI means longer operating time and closer monitoring. It does not disqualify you.
Conditions that travel with obesity
Diabetes, sleep apnoea or high blood pressure widen the work-up and sometimes change the procedure. Read gastric sleeve for diabetes before agreeing any price.
Previous abdominal surgery
Adhesions make the operation slower and more careful, which is why a revision costs more than a first operation.
What the package leaves out
The biggest reason two quotes differ is not the surgery but what one of them omits: tests, hospital nights, transfers, follow-up, complication cover.
The difference nobody advertises
Four nights in hospital — not one night and a hotel room
The cheapest packages share one line: you are discharged to a hotel the day after surgery. It is sold as comfort. It is the biggest saving a clinic can make, because a hospital bed costs at least three times a hotel room. You are paying for a night nurse, monitoring while you sleep, a surgeon in the building and an intensive care unit one floor away.
Our patients stay four nights in hospital, three of them after the operation:
The serious complications show themselves in the first days. In hospital that means a nurse at the bedside; in a hotel abroad it means noticing something is wrong at 3 a.m. That difference is already inside your gastric sleeve Turkey package.
Straight answers
Gastric sleeve Turkey price: frequently asked questions
How much is a gastric sleeve in Turkey?
With us the gastric sleeve Turkey price is £3,000. The gastric sleeve Turkey all inclusive package covers tests, the operation by Op. Dr. Volkan Arayıcı, four nights in a JCI- and TEMOS-accredited hospital, transfers, an interpreter and twelve months of follow-up. Private UK clinics quote £8,000 to £13,000. There is also a short gastric sleeve cost video.
How much are a gastric bypass and a gastric balloon?
A gastric bypass, mini gastric bypass or sleeve revision is £3,500. A band conversion is £3,500 to a sleeve or £3,800 to a bypass. The gastric balloon is £1,200 for six months or £2,100 for twelve months, with removal £250. All our weight loss surgery Turkey prices are complete packages on the same terms.
Does the gastric sleeve Turkey package include flights?
No. The package starts when you land in İzmir. Fares vary too much to bundle honestly, and you will nearly always book them cheaper yourself. Insurance, visa costs and personal spending are also outside; everything clinical is inside.
Can someone come with me, and what does it cost?
Yes. You get a two-bed room, so your companion stays with you throughout. Their three meals a day and airport transfers are included. They pay only for their flight.
Do I pay a deposit, and can I pay in instalments?
No deposit and no instalments. You pay the full amount in cash on the day of your operation, after your tests and after meeting the surgeon.
Will I be moved to a hotel after surgery?
Never. You stay four nights in hospital until discharge, and the transfer takes you from the airport directly to the hospital.
What if there is a complication?
Treating it costs you nothing extra: no second invoice, no charge for a longer stay, no bill for a return to theatre.
Is İzmir cheaper than Istanbul or Antalya?
Prices depend on the clinic and what its package contains, not on the city. Compare quotes with the five questions above: hospital nights, intensive care, the named surgeon, the pre-operative clearances and who pays for complications.
