Treatments

Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery Options

Each treatment plan is tailored to your BMI, medical history and personal goals after a detailed evaluation.

Sleeve gastrectomy diagram

Sleeve Gastrectomy

The most widely performed bariatric procedure worldwide. About 75-80% of the stomach is removed, creating a sleeve-shaped stomach for lasting weight loss.

Gastric bypass diagram

Gastric Bypass

Combines stomach restriction with reduced nutrient absorption. Particularly effective for type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome.

Gastric balloon diagram

Gastric Balloon

A non-surgical, endoscopic option using a temporary silicone balloon — ideal for patients not yet ready for surgery.

Revisional surgery diagram

Revisional Surgery

Correction surgery for patients who experienced insufficient weight loss or complications after a previous bariatric procedure.

Metabolic surgery diagram

Metabolic Surgery

Surgical treatment targeting type 2 diabetes, hypertension and metabolic syndrome, often independent of weight loss alone.
