Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery

Bariatric surgery is major metabolic surgery with strict criteria and lifelong follow-up. It is not a shortcut. We coordinate a candid, structured evaluation with bariatric teams in our network, and if surgery is advised and you choose it, the operation and follow-up planning in India.

We take no commissions from hospitals. Our fees are paid by you, published upfront, and itemized separately from your hospital bill. Full details on the Fees page.

A bariatric theatre prepared for surgery: a wide-platform operating table with side extensions and gel positioning pads, a laparoscopic stack behind.

Conditions we coordinate care for

  • Obesity meeting established surgical criteria, evaluated case by case
  • Type 2 diabetes being considered for metabolic surgery in selected patients
  • Obesity-related sleep apnea, joint disease and fatty liver, assessed as part of a full workup
  • Weight regain or complications after previous bariatric surgery

Procedures & services we coordinate

  • Comprehensive pre-operative evaluation: medical, nutritional and psychological
  • Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy
  • Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
  • One-anastomosis (mini) gastric bypass
  • Revision bariatric surgery after a previous procedure
  • Structured nutrition and follow-up planning you can continue from home

How a written second opinion works here

Most cases start here: a structured review of your records before anyone talks about travel. Sometimes the honest conclusion is that treatment close to home makes the most sense, and the opinion will say so.

  1. 1

    Share your records securely

    After we connect, we send you a secure link for your reports, imaging and prescriptions. Nothing sensitive goes through the website form. Your most recent documents are usually enough to start; we will ask for older ones only if the specialist needs them.

  2. 2

    An independent specialist reviews your case

    A doctor from our network who works in this field, not a call-center agent, reads your file against the treatment you have been advised. Where the records are incomplete, you are told exactly which test or report is missing before any conclusion is drawn.

  3. 3

    You receive a written opinion to keep and share

    A written document addressed to you: whether the advised treatment is in line with accepted practice, what the alternatives are, and the questions worth asking your treating doctor. It is meant to be shared with your own doctor, and it never replaces them.

If you decide to travel: how the full journey works

  1. 1

    Share your case

    Tell us your diagnosis and what treatment has been advised. After we connect, we send you a secure link for reports. Nothing sensitive goes through the website form.

  2. 2

    Teleconsult with a specialist

    We schedule a video consultation or a written second opinion with a specialist from our network who is relevant to your condition.

  3. 3

    Transparent plan and quotes

    You receive treatment options and itemized hospital quotes for your case. Our facilitation fee is shown separately, and it is never hidden inside a hospital bill.

  4. 4

    We coordinate everything in India

    Admissions, scheduling with real dates for your case, visa invitation paperwork, airport pickup, accommodation through our travel arm Tripcuro, and follow-up after you fly home.

Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery: FAQs

How much weight will I lose?
No honest team will promise you a figure: results vary widely with the procedure chosen, your physiology and the follow-through after surgery. The evaluation gives you a candid discussion of the realistic range for someone in your situation, the risks, and the permanent changes to eating and supplements involved, so your decision is informed rather than sold.
What does a written second opinion cover before bariatric surgery?
Whether you meet accepted criteria for surgery at all, which procedure the evidence favors for your situation and why, the risks worth weighing, and the non-surgical alternatives, including when structured medical management is the more sensible next step. Sometimes the honest conclusion is that surgery is not the right answer, and the opinion will say so.
How do you decide which hospital to recommend?
We are hospital-neutral. We shortlist hospitals across India based on the specialists available for your specific condition, the hospital’s accreditation and infrastructure for your procedure, and your budget. We take no commissions from hospitals, so nothing pushes us toward one over another. We share named options privately once we are working on your case.
