'I travelled to Turkey for surgery and it left me tube fed for life - don't risk it'
Louise Bradley said that instead of removing 75 per cent of her stomach, a Turkish surgeon removed 92 per cent - resulting in her ending up in intensive care after she arrived back home to Manchester.
A woman who travelled to Turkey for an operation and was left with life-changing complications is now encouraging others to stop taking risks. Louise Bradley, 33, had been on the NHS waiting list for four years and was delighted when a clinic on the Aegean coast offered her the gastric sleeve procedure she wanted.
The mum-of-two, from Whalley Range, Manchester, thought travelling abroad was her only option after she developed arthritis as a result of being overweight and found it too painful to exercise. But after going to Turkey for surgery, which she paid £2,000 for, Louise's health took a turn for the worst.
