Weight loss surgery-like gastric bypass have become very common and very safe now. My cousin got her Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in India. She has lost more than 65 lbs in 5 months and is very happy with the results. The price for obesity surgery is very less in India. My cousin just paid 25% of the cost she was quoted in America. She got her surgery from a company called Forerunners Healthcare.
Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines. I have read a lot of their patient stories also. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low cost, as bariatric surgery and weight loss surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that your Obesity surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

Hope this helps.

I haven't gotten it, but I know a couple of people who have had it done and they all gained weight back, not all their weigh but just enough to make them heavy again. sos the surgery was kinda wasted.

My moms friend had it done, and it didnt help her at all. It works for some people, but not all.
Id go for it, I mean if your health insurance covers the cost , then there isnt anything to lose.

No, but both my parents did. They say it was worth it because they are happy and healthy now. I' am glad they did it because it will keep them around longer.
