Medically Supervised Weight Loss
Under the supervision of a physician and our dietitian, our medically supervised weight loss program provides individualized counseling and meal planning to help you reach your specific weight loss goals.
.
Sleeve Gastrectomy
During the vertical sleeve gastrectomy, the stomach is restricted by stapling and dividing it vertically. Approximately 60% of the stomach is removed, so you feel full more quickly.
.
Gastric Bypass
The stomach is divided into a smaller top portion (pouch) which is about the size of an egg. The larger part of the stomach is bypassed and no longer stores or digests food. The small intestine is also divided and connected to the new stomach pouch to allow food to pass. This results in the stomach being able to hold less food and the decreased absorption of food.
.
Bariatric Revisions
This is a minimally invasive procedure that is used to treat patients who regain weight after gastric bypass surgery.
.
Robotic Bariatric Surgery
This is a form of sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgeries that utilize robotic assistance.
