Services
Safe Sleeve
The patented Safe Sleeve procedure reduces stomach size to limit food intake while preserving natural anatomy. This minimally invasive surgery promotes long-term weight loss by creating a smaller, banana-shaped stomach pouch. Patients benefit from reduced hunger hormones and faster recovery times compared to traditional methods.
Gastric Bypass
Gastric bypass creates a small stomach pouch and reroutes the digestive system to limit calorie absorption. This dual-action approach restricts food intake and reduces nutrient absorption. Ideal for patients seeking significant weight loss and metabolic improvements for conditions like diabetes.
Hiatal Hernia Surgery
Hiatal hernia repair addresses stomach displacement through the diaphragm, often performed alongside bariatric procedures. This corrective surgery prevents acid reflux and improves respiratory function. Combines with weight loss surgery for comprehensive gastrointestinal health solutions.
Gastric Revision
Gastric revision corrects or enhances previous weight loss procedures through surgical adjustments. Addresses complications from prior surgeries or converts restrictive procedures to malabsorptive techniques. Tailored solutions for patients needing additional weight loss or symptom management.
Turbo Sleeve-SIPS
Turbo Sleeve-SIPS combines stomach reduction with intestinal rerouting for enhanced malabsorption. Preserves stomach pylorus function while creating a longer digestive bypass. Offers superior weight loss results for patients with higher BMI or complex metabolic needs.
