Weight Loss Surgery Options

Weight loss surgery can help you lose weight and manage medical conditions related to obesity. These conditions can include diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, and risk factors for heart disease and stroke.

Our bariatric surgery options include:

  • gastric sleeve (sleeve gastrectomy)
  • gastric bypass (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass)
  • gastric balloon (endoscopic intragastric balloon)

You can learn more about them here.

NEW procedure: OverStitch - gastric suture

This state-of-the-art procedure involves an incisionless, transoral, endoscopic approach and is performed with an endoscopic suturing device.

Gastric Suturing has multiple benefits:

  • It can be offered as a day case procedure with very minimal downtime
  • It is offered to patients with a lower BMI of between 30-40. Candidates with BMIs of over 40 are more suitable for a gastric sleeve or bypass
  • Patients can follow a relatively normal dietary regime within 1 month
  • Patients are still eligible even if they have multiple co-morbidities
  • The age limit is 65 years
