Treatments and team: figures from Weight Doctors®. Reviews: ProvenExpert. As of October 2026.
Obesity is not a question of willpower. It is a chronic disease – and it can be treated.
Our aim is to combat excess weight as a global health problem: with specialists at your side and a plan that suits your body – from nutrition consultation and drug therapy through endoscopic stomach reduction to bariatric surgery.
It began in 2007 with the gastric balloon. Today we provide support at all locations to the same quality standards – and our wealth of experience grows by more than 5,000 treatments every year.
Our pathOur specialists were chief physicians or senior consultants at large clinics. Before every treatment, the specialist adviser, the treating specialist and an anaesthetist experienced in obesity medicine each give their approval – the six-eyes principle.
Our specialistsThe heart of Weight Doctors®: as the only location, the Nationalklinik brings the entire range of treatment together in one place – from diagnostics through surgery to aftercare.
