Services
Treatments Offered
Gastric Bypass
A roux-en-y gastric bypass surgery creates a new structure out of the existing stomach to create a small pouch. It bypasses a portion of the stomach in order to reduce the amount of food you can eat at any one time to help you lose weight.
Gastric Sleeve
Typically performed as a laparoscopic surgery, a gastric sleeve (sleeve gastrectomy) removes around 80% of the stomach to create a tube or sleeve-like structure in order to reduce the amount you can eat and thus lose weight.
Mini Gastric Bypass
A mini gastric bypass operation reduces the size of the available stomach without removing anything. It relies on a series of alterations to the stomach that can be likened to ‘plumbing.’ There is a reduced risk for a hernia and it results in a faster recovery.
6 Month Balloon
The BIB 6 month gastric balloon is a weight loss balloon that stays in your stomach for up to 6 months, where it suppresses your hunger and leaves you feeling fuller for longer in order to help you lose weight.
12 Month Balloon
The Orbera 365 up to 12 month gastric balloon is a weight loss balloon that stays in your stomach for up to 12 months, where it suppresses your hunger and leaves you feeling fuller for longer in order to help you lose weight.
