The Kaunas bariatric centre is designed around the needs of patients undergoing weight-loss surgery, with optimised facilities that support comfort, privacy and safety. The clinic offers dedicated bariatric inpatient wards, private ensuite recovery rooms, a high-dependency postoperative observation area, and access to multiple fully equipped operating theatres built with advanced laparoscopic and minimally invasive surgical systems. These theatres utilise laminar airflow, digital imaging and high-precision energy devices, ensuring safe procedures and reduced complication risks. Management is overseen by Chief Bariatric Surgeon Professor Almantas Maleckas, supported by a multidisciplinary governance board of surgeons, anaesthetists, dietitians and clinical coordinators. The leadership team ensures compliance with ISO quality standards and strict EU clinical governance frameworks, maintaining safety benchmarks equivalent to those in the UK, Western Europe and North America.

For MMG patients, Nordbariatrics offers a smooth and supportive treatment pathway. The English-speaking international patient department manages virtual consultations, procedure planning, travel advice, admission coordination and postoperative reporting. Pre-operative tests are typically completed within 24–48 hours of arrival. Hospital stays usually last two to three days, followed by several days of supported local recovery.
Rehabilitation and Continuing Care:
Long-term success is supported by a comprehensive aftercare programme that begins immediately after surgery. Patients receive structured nutritional plans, psychological support, wound-care guidance and physiotherapy where required. Once home, follow-up continues via teleconsultations, nutrition check-ins and progress monitoring, ensuring continuity and long-term health improvement.
