The Facility
CTG Healthcare 's highly qualified team of bariatric surgeons and specialists have changed the lives of thousands of individuals battling obesity.
Although surgery may be considered as a last resort, it has proven to be the best way to promote healthy living and a well-balanced diet.
Fitting a daily exercise routine into a busy schedules is quite a challenge. Most people resort to crash diets, which only offer temporary weight loss solutions, if any.
Simply being overweight does not determine whether or not you are the right candidate for weight loss surgery. Potential bariatric patients must go through a mandatory screening in order to be accepted into the program.
Patients must be mentally and physically ready to continue our long-term post-operative management program, as well as understanding the possible complications associated with the procedure.
Careful selection of bariatric patients is CTG Healthcare Group's full responsibility.

About Izmir, Turkey
Izmir is the third most populous city of Turkey and the country's largest port after Istanbul. It is located in the Gulf of Izmir, by the Aegean Sea. It is the capital of Izmir Province.
The city of Izmir is composed of 9 metropolitan districts (Balcova, Bornova, Buca, Cigli, Gaziemir, Guzelbahce, Karsıyaka, Konak, and Narlidere), each with its own distinct features and temperament.
The total population as of 2007 is 2,649,582, of which 2,606,294 is urban. The total area of the nine districts is 855 km².Izmir has almost 3,500 years of urban past, and possibly much more of advanced human settlement.
It is Turkey's first port for exports and is a free zone, a Turkish-U.S. joint-venture established in 1990. Its workforce, and particularly its rising class of young professionals, concentrated either in the city or in its immediate vicinity (such as in Manisa), affirm their name in an increasingly wider global scale and intensity. Izmir is widely regarded as one of the most liberal Turkish cities in terms of values, ideology, lifestyle, and dynamism.
