TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, you can apply for a Thai DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) based on your follow-up appointments after your bariatric surgery, provided you have a treatment plan for at least six months from your doctor. You may also need to present appointment confirmation letters and possibly the doctor's business card for the visa application.

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

I recently contacted the embassy in my country for specific advice on what was needed from the doctor. They said 'For the medical purpose, you must have an appointment confirmation letter from the hospital and information about the appointment and the procedure you will go through."

Yes, you can if you have a treatment plan for the following treatments over the next months. And possibly the business card of the doctor doing your treatment will be asked from the embassy. My friend did it before.
