At Discover Weight Loss, we understand that the cost of weight loss surgery is a significant financial investment.
Weight Loss Surgery Payment Plans
Surgery could be more affordable than you think
If you’re considering weight loss surgery but are concerned about the upfront cost, flexible finance may help you take the next step.
At Discover Weight Loss, we work with NOVA Medical Finance to help eligible patients explore payment plans for bariatric surgery.
Could your monthly repayments be similar to the cost of weight loss medication?
Many anti-obesity medications involve ongoing monthly expenditure. With medical finance, you may be able to spread the cost of weight loss surgery over several years.
Depending on the medication, dose, loan amount, interest rate and repayment period, the monthly costs could be comparable.
Why consider NOVA Medical Finance?
- Specialist medical finance provider
- Unsecured loans available to eligible applicants
- Flexible repayment terms
- Personalised interest rates
- Helpful staff to guide you through the process
- Free, no-obligation finance application

Step 2: Contact NOVA Medical Finance for a personalised quote.
