Stefanie is from Essen in North Rhine-Westphalia. She’s in Izmir for a sleeve gastrectomy. She talks about her experience with medicalfly, her well-being after the sleeve gastrectomy, and her reasons for undergoing this procedure.
“For about 4 years, I’ve been considering a sleeve gastrectomy.”
Stefanie shares that she has been contemplating a sleeve gastrectomy for approximately 4 years. However, being a mother of 2 young children, she initially waited to make this decision. “I waited until my children reached a certain age,” she says. She’s currently in Izmir and has undergone her sleeve gastrectomy.
“I’m glad that I finally had the sleeve gastrectomy procedure done.”
“I’m doing quite well, and I can really recommend coming here to anyone who would like to do this,” she reports. The medicalfly team is excellent, the people here are really kind, she adds.
“My turning point…”
Her turning point was when she realized that playing with her children wasn’t as easy anymore due to her weight. “The more weight you have, the harder it is to keep up with the kids while playing. That’s not easy at all,” she says. That’s when she realized that something needed to change and decided to undergo a sleeve gastrectomy.
“I’m looking forward to getting to know my ‘new me’ soon.”
With a smile, she thanks everyone and looks forward to soon getting to know her “new me.”
