Just received a lovely testimonial from a patient that had surgery 9.2.26.
I recently had my gastric sleeve surgery at SWLC in Belgium, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with my experience from start to finish. The hospital itself was spotless — incredibly clean, modern, and reassuring from the moment I walked in. It immediately put me at ease knowing I was in such a professional and hygienic environment.
The nurses were absolutely wonderful. They were kind, attentive, and constantly checking in to make sure I was comfortable and supported. The anaesthetist was calm and reassuring, explaining everything clearly and helping to settle any nerves I had before surgery. My surgeon was truly amazing — highly skilled, professional, and compassionate. I felt completely safe in their care and confident that I was in the best hands possible.
One of my biggest worries beforehand was the language barrier, but it turned out not to be a problem at all. Communication was smooth and easy throughout my stay, and everyone made a real effort to ensure I understood everything. I always felt listened to and well informed.
Debbie and Chris in England were incredibly supportive throughout the whole process. They were always available to answer questions and provided reassurance whenever I needed it. Chris, my care patient coordinator in Belgium, was equally fantastic — supportive, organised, and genuinely caring. Having such a strong support team around me made the entire journey feel stress-free and well managed.
My recovery period has been great, and I’ve felt fully supported the entire time, with the team staying in contact and checking in regularly. Knowing they were there for me even after surgery gave me so much reassurance and confidence in my recovery.
Overall, my experience was outstanding. The level of care, professionalism, and kindness I received exceeded my expectations. I only wish I had done it sooner. I would highly recommend this team to anyone considering gastric sleeve surgery.
