It is important for men and women over the age of 40 to perform full health checkups on a regular basis. Whether having health concerns or feeling completely healthy, it is advisable by doctors to have one’s health checked every couple of years.

Vilnius, Lithuania -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/29/2017 -- While some people refuse to have their health checked regularly because of the price when going private, others are seeking for options to save - and are happy to find that it is possible to cut down the costs for health checkups by up to 70% simply by choosing to go abroad for full health checkups.

"My friend recommended going abroad for a health checkup. I got in touch with the recommended hospital and was advised to choose a package for full health checkup for women over 40, which I did. I took one day off at work, and the whole trip together with the checkups cost less than 700 Eur – this is with all the tests done and many doctor consultations. I would have never expected to save that much – this is super convenient for working people." – says Christina Rader, a 43-year women from Manchester, UK, who went to Kardiolita Hospital in Vilnius, Lithuania to have her health fully checked.

"From what our patients say, this really is a very convenient option – for patients who come from another country, we always arrange the checkup in a way that they would not need to spend several days in the hospital. Our patients usually need to take just one day off at work, and come for the weekend – which is very cost-effective and perfect for working people and everyone wanting to save time and money." – says Andrius Jonutis, the General Deputy Manager at Kardiolita Hospital in Vilnius, Lithuania.

At Kardiolita Hospital, there are several health checkup packages to choose from, and the price starts at 350 Eur. Being a JCI accredited hospital, Kardiolita Hospital in Vilnius, Lithuania is still able to offer very competitive prices for the highest quality of medical services - patients save up to 70% depending on the health checkup package.

An increasing number of European residents faces issues resulting from excess weight. Just as example - according to the information published by World Health Organization, every fifth Lithuanian suffers from obesity, and Lithuania is number five in the list of EU countries with the highest number of obese residents. Obesity often causes a number of other health issues. Doctors sometimes suggest bariatric surgery as a solution for these issues. However, innovative and minimally invasive surgeries are becoming increasingly popular worldwide.

Vilnius, Lithuania -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/27/2017 -- Perhaps many have heard of the adjustable gastric band surgery, but, apparently, not many people know that this procedure is less and less frequently performed. According to N. Kaselis, the abdominal surgeon of Kardiolita Hospital, Lithuanian residents are more often recommended modern bariatric surgery.

"Such progressive countries as Finland completely gave up adjustable gastric band surgery due to their complications and inefficiency. Today, the world prefers new, advanced procedures – gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy orgastric plication, after which people can quite quickly get back to the full-fledged diet and lose 60-70% of excess weight in the course of two years. Such sugeries are performed once and for all, and 100% of patients are satisfied with the results" says N. Kaselis, the abdominal surgeon of Kardiolita Hospital.

Innovative weight loss surgeries are performed using a laparoscopic entry technique, i.e. through small incisions in the stomach wall. This method ensures minimal post-operative pain and the complete absence of post-surgical scars. The patient starts feeling well the next day and does not feel any discomfort.

According to N. Kaselis, the abdominal surgeon of Kardiolita Hospital, excess weight is a major problem these days, which affects both men and women. Rising cholesterol levels increase the risk of heart attack; therefore, obesity gradually causes many chronic diseases. Doctors say that these new weight loss surgeries may solve complex health problems.

It is scientifically proven that the gastric bypass surgery which is also performed on teenagers can even help regulate diabetes type 2. These surgeries can also help to treat a number of other diseases, such as hypertonic disease, snoring, poor joint condition and sleep apnea. After these surgeries, the rate of recovery from various diseases is 75–95%.

Being recognized as one of the best private general hospitals in Lithuania and the Northern Europe, Kardiolita Hospital offers very competitive prices for medical services, allowing patients to save up to 60% compared to private treatment in the UK, Scandinavian or other European countries.

As more men and women around the world are taking charge of their health and become more aware of the potential health risks of late diagnosis, preventative and diagnostic health checkup options are becoming more popular than ever before. When choosing a health checkup package abroad and a hospital to go to, the top priority for most is the quality of services at the hospital, price and the length of stay needed to get everything done.

Vilnius, Lithuania -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/04/2016 -- Kardiolita Hospital, the leading private general hospital in Vilnius, Lithuania, has now made available 4 different health checkup packages that combine the most needed preventative and diagnostic tests and specialist consultations.

In a society where obesity is becoming a serious health risk for a large number of middle-age men and women, gastric surgery numbers are increasing every month in most European hospitals. Being one of the most successful and proven ways to drop the extra weight without sacrificing the quality of life, gastric surgery proves to be the most wanted solution for dropping extra body weight by most people.

Vilnius, Lithuania -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/13/2016 -- Moreover, patients are happy to go to another country to have the surgery performed, in order to pay significantly less for their gastric surgery abroad. The 3 most popular gastric surgeries are gastric bypass, gastric sleeve and gastric plication, the latter also being the least complicated of all 3.

As with all surgeries, there are risks with gastric surgeries as well, especially when going for a gastric surgery abroad. Except for gastric plication, where 3 days in the hospital would be enough before flying back home, for gastric sleeve and gastric bypass it is recommended to spend 4 days in the hospital after the surgery. Due to the specifics of the surgery and the stitching, it is only safe to fly after this set amount of time – with gastric surgeries, 3 or 4 days at the hospital after the surgery can make a difference, especially knowing that if any complications are going to occur, this is going to happen on the 3rd day or so after the surgery, in most cases.

This is why it is extremely important to not rush home right after the surgery – staying in the hospital for the recommended time can help avoid complications, so planning a day more of stay is the best choice for lowering the risk of any complications.

"I did want to fly back home as soon as possible after the surgery as I really felt good – but knowing that the surgeon recommends 4 days at the hospital, I did stay the recommended time and do not regret – I was being taken excellent care of, with all doctors and staff at Kardiolita Private Hospital being extremely helpful and caring" – says Helen Clarke from London, who has had a gastric sleeve surgery 2 months ago in the leading private hospital in Lithuania – Kardiolita.

Gastric surgeons at Kardiolita private general hospital in Vilnius, Lithuania, perform gastric surgeries daily, and the waiting times to book the dates for a surgery are usually less than 7 days.
