I piled on weight during pregnancy and even after giving birth, my weight still seemed to increase. I had tried dieting and exercising but post natal depression really kicked in and chocolate and wine became my best friend. I had seen my GP who referred me on to dieticans and a phyciatrist. Although they tried to help me, I still went on to the internet and searched for the Worlds Leading Bariatric Surgeon and the name Dr Bruno Dillemans under International Surgery Group came up. I contacted International Surgery Group who I personally found to be very professional and informative and they helped me to get approved for surgery by Dr Bruno Dillemans. Within two weeks of contacting ISG, I met Dr Dillemans and had my Gastric Bypass proceedure. The hospital was more like a hotel than anything else. Staff were lovely. ISG provided me with a step-by-step of what-to-do list from the moment I arrived at the hospital, (which is one of the largest hospitals in Belgium). In total, I spent four days in Brugge. Day one was consultation day, Day two was Surgery day and then I spent two post-op days in the Park Hotel. A nurse came to visit me on both days after the hospital discharged me from Dr Dillemans team. On the morning of day five, I went back to St.Jans Hospital for a post-op check with Dr Dillemans before travelling home. He is a proper charmer and if I was not already married ... well ... he has my number I had an excellent experience and it did not cost me the earth either! To be honest, i shopped around and after a lot of pain staking research, ISG were by far the cheapest out there that were providing access to Dr Dillemans so I guess I got the best of both. Hope this is helpful to all those who are considering surgery :-)
