Procedures
Bariatric surgery is a safe and effective way to treat obesity and obesity-related diseases. Patients generally lose between 30% and 50% of their excess weight within the first six months, and 70% of excess weight within 12 months after the procedure. The exact results will depend on the type of procedure and the patient’s response to it. Most patients also experience significant improvements in obesity-related conditions (such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, arthritis, etc.). For example, patients suffering from type 2 diabetes often see tremendous improvement and even complete remission of the disease after bariatric surgery. Discover how bariatric surgery can help you.

Gastric bypass
Gastric bypass (RYGBP) is a restrictive procedure that can also reduce fat absorption. It minimizes food intake, reducing hunger, and increasing satiety. In some cases, it can also change the taste of food, thus helping people to avoid high-calorie foods. This procedure comprises of two steps: partitioning of the stomach and reconstruction of the gastrointestinal tract. First, we create a small, thumb-sized pouch from the upper part of the stomach. This process leaves the more substantial portion of the stomach non-functional
