How does a gastric balloon consultation actually work?
Maybe you’ve been close before: You visited our site, read about the gastric balloon, and perhaps even opened the contact form. And then came that moment of hesitation. That is completely understandable and happens to many people.
Often it is not a lack of interest, but the uncertainty of the unknown. In this article, we want to take away exactly that worry. We show you transparently what a gastric balloon consultation at Clinichaus really looks like: An exchange on equal footing that helps you make a well-founded decision for your path—without time pressure and without obligation.
Why is a consultation before the gastric balloon so important?
A gastric balloon is a highly effective tool for sustainable weight reduction. But every biography and every metabolism is different. The core of a good consultation is to find out if the method actually fits your individual life circumstances. It is about your safety and long-term success.
The Consultation Process – Step by Step
Transparency creates trust. This is what the process looks like at Clinichaus:
- First non-binding conversation: An open dialogue to get to know each other, usually by phone or digitally.
- Individual expectations: We discuss together how the balloon can support your feeling of satiety.
- Medical assessment: Review of your health history for maximum safety.
- Clarification of uncertainties: Room for all questions about the first few days and everyday life with the balloon.
- No obligation: At the end of the consultation, there is no contract, just pure information.
Which questions are discussed in the consultation?
In a consultation at Clinichaus, there are no “wrong” questions. We discuss topics such as the feeling of the balloon in the stomach, dealing with nutrition on vacation, or aftercare following the treatment. We clarify everything so that the process becomes completely understandable for you.
What happens after the consultation?
After the conversation, only what you want to happen happens. Maybe you want to plan the next step, maybe you need time to think. Both are absolutely fine. We at Clinichaus respect your decision-making process and will not pressure you with calls. You keep full control.
Consultation in English – why it matters
Especially with medical topics, language is the key to safety. An English-speaking consultation prevents misunderstandings and ensures that your expectations are understood exactly. It is about trust and emotional security on your path to change.
