Bariatric Surgical Procedures Offered
We offer a range of bariatric surgical procedures to address different weight loss needs:
Gastric Bypass
The gastric bypass procedure involves creating a smaller stomach pouch and rerouting a part of the small intestine. This procedure helps restrict food intake and alters the digestion process, resulting in weight loss.
Gastric Sleeve
Gastric sleeve surgery involves removing a portion of the stomach to create a smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach pouch. This procedure reduces hunger and limits the amount of food one can eat, promoting weight loss.
Gastric Banding
Gastric banding, also known as laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding, involves placing an adjustable band around the upper part of the stomach. This band helps restrict food intake and creates a feeling of fullness with smaller portions.
Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch
This complex procedure combines both restrictive and malabsorptive techniques. It involves removing a portion of the stomach and rerouting the small intestine to limit both the amount of food consumed and the body's ability to absorb calories and nutrients.
