What is Bariatric surgery?
Bariatric surgery, also known as weight loss surgery, is a surgical procedure designed to help individuals struggling with obesity achieve significant and sustainable weight loss. It involves various surgical techniques that modify the digestive system, helping patients reduce their food intake, feel fuller faster, and achieve improved weight management.Â
Our Bariatric Surgery Procedures
Gastric bypass surgery is a common bariatric procedure that involves creating a small pouch from the stomach and rerouting the small intestine to bypass a portion of the digestive system. This procedure restricts the amount of food you can eat and reduces calorie absorption, resulting in significant weight loss and improvements in obesity-related health conditions.Â
Sleeve gastrectomy is a bariatric procedure that involves removing a portion of the stomach, resulting in a smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach. This procedure limits the amount of food you can consume, reduces hunger hormones, and promotes weight loss. Sleeve gastrectomy is a highly effective standalone procedure or may be performed as the first step in a two-step weight loss surgery.Â
Adjustable gastric banding is a bariatric procedure that involves placing an adjustable band around the upper part of the stomach, creating a smaller stomach pouch. The band can be adjusted to control the amount of food you can eat. This procedure helps restrict food intake and promotes weight loss. It is reversible and does not involve any permanent changes to the digestive system.Â
Bariatric surgery may be a suitable option if you meet specific criteria and have struggled to lose weight through non-surgical methods. It is generally recommended for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher (or BMI of 35 or higher with obesity-related health conditions). Our expert bariatric team will evaluate your medical history and guide you in determining whether bariatric surgery is the right choice for you.Â
