Our Weight Loss Surgery Procedures
The gastric sleeve procedure involves removing a large portion of the stomach, creating a smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach. This restrictive procedure helps patients feel full with smaller portions, leading to weight loss. Gastric sleeve surgery is a popular choice due to its minimally invasive nature and excellent long-term results.
Gastric bypass is a widely recognised and effective weight loss surgery option. This procedure involves reducing the size of the stomach and rerouting the digestive system, resulting in significant weight loss. With gastric bypass, patients typically experience improved health and a reduction in obesity-related conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.
Mini Gastric Bypass is a highly effective weight loss procedure that combines a restrictive and malabsorptive approach to help individuals achieve substantial and lasting weight loss.
The Transoral Outlet Revision (TORe) procedure is a minimally invasive, endoscopic solution designed for patients who have experienced weight regain after their initial Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass surgery. One common reason for this can be dilation (stretching) of the gastrojejunal anastomosis (outlet) created during your initial gastric bypass surgery.
