Bariatric surgery is a powerful tool for lasting weight management, not a quick fix. I offer several procedures tailored to individual needs and health conditions. Let's explore your options:

Gastric Bypass (RYGB) : This involves creating a smaller stomach pouch and rerouting a portion of your small intestine. This dual approach restricts food intake and alters nutrient absorption, leading to significant weight loss and often resolving conditions like type 2 diabetes. Recovery is more extensive than some other options.

Gastric Sleeve (Laparoscopic/Robotic) : A less invasive procedure where a portion of the stomach is removed, creating a smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach that restricts food intake and promotes weight loss. Laparoscopic or robotic techniques minimize incisions and recovery time.

Lap Band : An adjustable band placed around the upper stomach limits food intake. It's reversible, offering flexibility, but the weight loss may be less substantial than with other procedures.

Mini Gastric Bypass : Similar to RYGB, but with a smaller gastric pouch and shorter intestinal bypass, potentially leading to a faster recovery. Long-term outcomes require more research.

Sleeve Plus Procedures : These combine sleeve gastrectomy with additional procedures (like duodenal switch or biliopancreatic diversion) for more significant weight loss by targeting both restriction and absorption. This complex surgery involves a longer recovery period and higher risk of complications.

Intragastric Balloon : A non-surgical option where a balloon is placed in the stomach to induce fullness and reduce food intake. It's less invasive and reversible, but weight loss is typically temporary.

Beyond surgery, we offer customized weight loss programs and comprehensive post-bariatric surgery care for holistic support.
