Weight Loss Procedures

Gastric Sleeve Surgery

Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as the sleeve gastrectomy, has become a popular choice for patients seeking excellent weight loss in a straightforward procedure that doesn’t require the maintenance and long-term complication rates of a Lap Band.

Gastric Bypass

Gastric bypass surgery shrinks the size of your stomach, so you can’t eat as much as you used to. The surgeon will also re-route, or bypass, part of your digestive system so you don’t absorb as much food.

Mini Gastric Bypass

Mini gastric bypass surgery (MGB) is a laparoscopic weight loss surgery that can be revised. It is very similar to the traditional RNY bypass but only has one connection (single anastomosis) to the small intestine.

Revision Conversion Surgery

Revision weight loss surgery is a surgical procedure that is performed on patients who have already undergone a form of bariatric surgery, and have either had complications from such surgery or have not successfully achieved significant weight loss results from the initial surgery.

Plication Surgery

Laparoscopic gastric plication is a newer minimally invasive weight-loss surgery technique that reduces the size of the stomach capacity to approximately three ounces. Unlike the gastric sleeve procedure, gastric plication may be reversible.

Duodenal Switch Surgery

The duodenal switch (DS) procedure, also known as biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) or gastric reduction duodenal switch (GRDS), is a weight loss surgery procedure that is composed of a restrictive and a malabsorptive aspect.
