There are many myths and prejudices regarding the results and safety of bariatric surgery. In most cases, the fears and prejudices result from the experiences of specific patients with complications and an unsatisfactory treatment. There is no medical procedure or medicine that does not have side effects, the same applies to bariatric surgery.
To avoid disappointment, it is worth examining the competence of the surgeon and the treatment team, counselling and monitoring services provided, their durability, and the experiences of other patients – all these things matter.

Our dedication has led us to become the largest professional clinic not only in Estonia but also in the Baltic states and Finland in 13 years.

”As for your service, I liked that the process was clear and fast. All the staff were very pleasant, and I had a feeling of well-kept patient – I could contact them immediately in case of concern (fortunately, this has not happened so far).”
“ I was very satisfied with everything. Before the operation, there was excellent communication with assistant Julia, who always responded promptly, and I got answers to my questions. While in the hospital, everyone was very pleasant and showed a caring
attitude. I would especially like to thank nurse Teija, who is such a wonderful person, so deep and warm and sweet. Teija always made me feel like I was doing the right thing and before the surgery alleviated tension very well. And surely, it’s Dr. Ilmar Kaur himself. I am so pleased that I chose him as my doctor. Immediately there was confidence, and he is a truly pleasant person. I liked the fact that the doctor visited me before and after the operation to see how I was recovering and how I was feeling. It was nice and comfortable to communicate.”
