Dr. Abhishek Katakwar is a leading Hernia surgeon in Hyderabad, known for his expertise in treating complex hernia cases using advanced, minimally invasive techniques. With over 23 years of experience, he specializes in laparoscopic, single-incision, and scarless hernia surgeries. He currently serves as Associate Director at AIG Hospitals.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), obesity is now classified as a disease, not just a lifestyle condition.
Bariatric surgery, or weight loss surgery, is a life-changing procedure that helps individuals with obesity achieve lasting weight loss.
Diabetes is a chronic (long-lasting) health condition that affects how your body converts food into energy.
Cholecystectomy is a safe, common surgery to remove the gallbladder, a small organ under the liver that stores digestive bile.
Metabolic surgery aids weight loss and treats conditions like diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol.
Hernia surgery is a procedure to correct a hernia, which happens when an internal organ or tissue bulges through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue.
The latest advancement in bariatric surgery is the adoption of robotic-assisted techniques. In this approach, the surgeon controls the procedure using a master console, while a robotic patient cart performs the surgery through small incisions—similar to laparoscopy, but with greater ease and accuracy. Robotic surgery offers several benefits over traditional laparoscopic methods, including enhanced 3D visualization and highly precise, multi-range instruments that improve patient safety. It also allows for superior suturing, reduces post-operative pain, and shortens recovery time. Notably, it is especially effective for super obese patients (weighing over 250 kg), where conventional laparoscopy can be particularly challenging.
This book will make you think and reflect. It will motivate you to take positive actions. It is the pit stop for inspiration and wisdom to all those who have "DIABESITY" (diabetes and obesity) and all those who want to live a more determined and intentional life.
If you are asking yourself “Am I A Candidate for Weight Loss
Surgery?”, the AIG's
Center for Obesity Surgery will partner with you in determining if bariatric surgery
is right for you. If you qualify, bariatric surgery (also referred to as weight loss
surgery) can be a life changing and even lifesaving option when diet and exercise
have not resulted in sufficient weight loss.
All weight loss surgeries may carry some degree of risk, therefore it is not for
everyone. However, bariatric surgery is considered extremely safe but, as with any
surgery when an individual meets specific criteria in order to be considered a
candidate.
Many factors are evaluated to qualify for weight loss or bariatric
surgery. If
you’ve decided you’re ready to take the step towards a reliable and sustainable
weight loss solution, you may qualify for one of the weight loss surgery procedures
that Dr. Katakwar performs. With a commitment to a long-term health and lifestyle
change, you may be a candidate for weight loss surgery, depending on your individual
weight and health.
