If carrying excess weight affects your life, taking the right steps to lose weight is important. Research has shown that weight-loss surgery can be more effective in the long term than weight loss drugs or diets. That's why Spire Bushey Hospital offers a weight loss surgery service tailored to you. Your weight loss surgery will be undertaken by one of our team of experienced weight loss surgeons in our safe, clean private hospital.
We pride ourselves on our patient care and attention to safety
At Spire Bushey we have a multidisciplinary team including our bariatric consultant surgeons, specialist weight loss nurses, dieticians who specialise in bariatric surgery, physiotherapists, and access to psychological support from our counselling service, The Insight Network. Our team works very closely to ensure you receive the care required to prepare you for weight loss surgery and provide you with the support you need following your procedure. They will support you throughout your journey to help you make the lifestyle changes needed to ensure your weight loss is permanent.
Many patients have a good idea of the type of surgery they are interested in. If you are undecided, our specialist bariatric dietician Gill Cuffaro and your consultant can help you decide which is the most suitable procedure, based on your weight, eating habits and lifestyle. Please read the information below for more information about each procedure offered at Spire Bushey Hospital:
Which ever procedure you choose your treatment and care will be carried out at the hospital and you will have access to a 24 hour emergency helpline after you are discharged should you experience any problems.
What do Spire Bushey offer?
Fixed Price Packages
We offer competitive fixed price packages for all of our procedures which covers your 24-month follow up care with the multidisciplinary team, any band fill adjustments (gastric band patients only) and high dependency unit care (HDU) should you require it during your recovery.
Aftercare Package
Our 24- month follow up aftercare package is one of the most important parts of the weight loss surgery. The aftercare package gives you access to all the members of our mutidisiplinary team including regular face-to-face and telephone conversations. You will also become a member of our bariatric peer support group, giving you the opportunity to socialise with people who have undergone the same life changing surgery. You are welcome along to this for as long as you want. Some of our weight loss patients have been coming for many years and find it huge support in aiding them in their success.
Free mini consultation evenings
We invite patients who are considering weight loss surgery to attend a free mini consultation evening. This free consultation gives the patient a chance to meet a bariatric consultant and ask them questions about the surgery to help you make the right decision. If you would like to proceed further, an appointment can be made with one of our consultant surgeons, at a time that is convenient for you.
