Choosing Private Healthcare for weight loss surgery

Finding the right provider for your private healthcare can be confusing sometimes and at The Private Surgeon we also understand that when you need help, you need it as soon as possible, with as little fuss as possible and importantly you want to know that you are in good hands.

Well, we're here to help.

Good hands...

Professor Duff Bruce is one the leading weight loss surgeons in the UK, he has successfully completed over 500 weight loss procedures and is widely published academically with 22 published papers.  Importantly, Professor Bruce has for a long time been an active council member of BOMSS which is the professional governing body for all weight loss surgeons in the UK and is also Chair of SCOTS (Severe and Complex Obesity Treatment Service) which is a charity actively involved in improving access to the best solutions for Scotland's obese population.

As soon as possible...

We know that once you've decided that you want to have weight loss surgery, then you want it quickly.  An important part of our service is that we make sure at all times that you don't rush into something that may be wrong for you, but we will help you decide on the best solution.  If you want to talk to us though, we can make sure that you get an appointment for initial consultation very quickly.

Confusing options...

We understand.  There are many options.  There are some overseas options, which may look attractive in terms of price, but at The Private Surgeon one thing we always ensure is that you are cared for after your surgery.  This may not always be the case if you go abroad.

Which hospital and which surgeon?

The Private Surgeon works with BMI, one of the UK's leading providers of private healthcare and we can accept insurance payments from any health insurer if you are covered for the procedure.  There are many things to think about when choosing the best surgeon and hospital for you.   At The Private Surgeon we are happy to help you decide.
