Question:
Looking for doctor/hospitals in GERMANY that perform WLS.

Does anyone have any information on doctors and/or hospitals in Germany that perform weight loss surgery? I have friends there who are impressed by my transformation and would like to pursue this type of surgery. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!    — Mermaid (posted on February 21, 2005)

I had my surgery done by Dr. Ruckert at St Johnaus in Landstul Germany. I know that the military base Landstul does the surgery as well.
