Weight loss surgery has been proving for years to be one of the most effective long-term treatments for obesity. The procedures – gastric sleeve, gastric band, gastric bypass and ESG (Non-surgical sleeve) have been performed and perfected for years, resulting in life-changing weight loss for the majority of patients. Each form of weight loss surgery works in different ways, so patients can have the procedure best suited to their lifestyle and weight problems.
At Healthier Weight we have been helping people overcome obesity with weight loss solutions for almost 20 years. During this time we have built a team of experts in every aspect of weight loss surgery, including our multidisciplinary team made up of consultants, anaesthetists, bariatric dietitians, bariatric nurses, psychologists and a bariatric advisory board. But what else makes us the best choice for private weight loss surgery?
Since 2003 we have been proudly supporting people to lose weight and regain health. Over the years we’ve never strayed from this vision. Weight loss surgery is all we do, every member of our team is an expert. From your first conversation with our patient care coordinators to your surgery with a specialist bariatric surgeon, right the way through to your aftercare team, everyone is trained and experienced in bariatrics and weight loss.
We only work with the best surgeons, all of whom are NHS and GMC registered. Our surgeons are that good we wrote a whole article about them, you can read that here.
We know that having the surgical procedure is just the beginning of the journey to a healthier weight. In actual fact, the real work starts after the surgery, in the weeks, months and years that follow you will have to work with your procedure to get the most out of it. But, you don’t have to do it alone. Some providers charge for the surgery, then extra for the important aftercare, or even worse, offer no aftercare at all!
We see our aftercare as just as important as the surgery. Our aftercare team is dedicated to supporting you through your journey. Specialists dietitians, health coaches, bariatric nurses and a patient support team are all on hand to help you get the most out of your surgery.
During covid and lockdown like most people, we realised the importance of being accessible even if it wasn’t in person.
In September 2021 we launched the Healthier Weight App. All patients get free access to this after their surgery and can find everything on that they need to succeed in their weight loss journey.
From 24-7 support from a specialist bariatric dietitian, to fitness and cooking videos. Our app has it all, right in your pocket. So no matter where you are or whenever you need it, there is access to support all the time.
It is no secret that private weight loss surgery isn’t cheap. And while some providers, especially abroad may have more affordable one of payments, the risk might not be worth it.
We want everybody to have safe bariatric surgery, with the best surgeons and best aftercare. This is why we have the option for patients to spread the cost of their payment, up to 5 years. Alongside this, we have a 0% deferred payment plan, for people who have the majority of the money but need a little longer to reach the final amount.
Our success stories from real patients speak for themselves. We’ve been able to watch people achieve goals that they never thought possible before surgery. If you want to read all of the incredible stories you can see them here.
We don’t just pride ourselves on the success stories shared here but the data we publish proves we have the highest success rate and lowest complication rate.
From Southampton to Scotland we operate out of the best facilities nationwide. This means that most of our patients can have their surgery and aftercare in a hospital close to them. Or can travel to one of our other hospitals for the surgeon or hospital that they desire.
