When May Bariatric Surgery Be Considered?

Bariatric surgery may be considered for selected patients with severe or clinically significant obesity, particularly when obesity is affecting overall health or when non-surgical weight-management approaches have not provided adequate results.

Sleeve Gastrectomy

Reduces stomach size to help control food intake, curb appetite-regulating hormones, and support steady weight loss.

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

Reduces stomach capacity and reroutes sections of the small intestine to optimize metabolic response and nutrient absorption.

One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass

A single-connection bypass procedure utilized for selected patients seeking significant weight reduction and metabolic control.

Revision Bariatric Surgery

Considered in specific cases involving previous bariatric procedures experiencing complications, weight regain, or inadequate outcomes.

Procedure Selection Note: The choice of procedure depends on factors such as BMI, metabolic health, previous abdominal surgery, nutritional considerations and individual patient needs.
