Am I a good candidate for this procedure?
Candidates for Gastric Sleeve surgery include people who:
- Have a body mass index (BMI) of 40or higher (severely obese) or a BMI of 35-39.9 (obese) with obesity-related health issues
- Have tried to lose weight through diet and exercise without long-term success
- Are committed to making permanent lifestyle changes including adopting a healthy diet and engaging in regular physical activity
- Are free from any medical conditions as these conditions can make the surgery very risky.
How does it work?
The Gastric Sleeve procedure involves the removal of about 75-85% of the stomach leaving a banana-shaped sleeve. This reduction in stomach size helps to restrict the amount of food that you eat. The portion of your stomach that is removed also contains a majority of the cells that produce ghrelin, a hormone that controls appetite. Your appetite will also decrease due to a decrease in the production of ghrelin.

What are some important concerns?
The Gastric Sleeve procedure is not a magic solution. It requires you to commit to significant lifestyle changes, including healthy eating habits and better exercise habits. These changes are important for long-term success.
As with any surgery, there are risks and drawbacks such as infection, bleeding and leaks. The procedure is also non-reversible; it changes your digestive system permanently.
These procedures require careful thought and dialogue with your health specialists. You must speak with a qualified surgeon to be thoroughly assessed and determine if Gastric Sleeve is the right choice for you. You must consider your circumstances, including health conditions and weight loss goals, and whether you are committed to making lifestyle changes to support the surgery.
