Sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass and metabolic surgery

Your BMI, health history and eating pattern decide which of these fits — the team walks through the trade-offs with you before recommending one.

Intragastric balloon

A non-surgical, temporary silicone balloon placed in the stomach to reduce capacity — for patients not yet ready for surgery.

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy

Removes roughly 75-80% of the stomach, reducing hunger hormone production and portion capacity. Our most-performed bariatric procedure.

Mini gastric bypass

A simpler, single-connection variant of gastric bypass with a shorter operating time and comparable long-term results.

Gastric bypass (Roux-en-Y)

Reroutes part of the digestive tract for both restriction and reduced absorption — often recommended for higher BMI or type 2 diabetes.

Duodenal switch

A more complex, higher-impact procedure combining sleeve gastrectomy with significant intestinal rerouting, for select cases.

Revision bariatric surgery

For patients who need a follow-up procedure after a previous weight loss surgery hasn't given the expected results.

Recovery, week by week

Results and pace vary between individuals — this is what to genuinely plan for, not a guarantee.

Weeks 1-2 — liquid & soft diet

Hospital stay is typically 2-4 days. Most patients resume light activity within days of returning home.

Weeks 3-4 — return to routine

Most patients are back to normal daily activity, with diet gradually reintroducing soft solid foods.

Months 1-12 — steady weight loss

Most patients lose 60-70% of excess weight over 12-18 months, alongside regular follow-ups and nutritional monitoring.

Ongoing — lifelong supplementation

Most procedures require lifelong vitamin and mineral supplements and periodic blood work, since surgery changes nutrient absorption.

Possible risks: as with any surgical procedure — infection risk, nutritional deficiencies, and the possibility of a revision procedure in some cases. Anesthesia carries its own risks, which your surgeon will review based on your health history. Long-term success depends on sustained dietary and lifestyle changes after surgery.
