    What is Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

    Gastric sleeve surgery safely reduces your stomach size by around 85%, leaving you with a much smaller "sleeve" area to hold food. With a reduced stomach size, you can drastically lower your food consumption and achieve significant weight loss.

    This surgery may be an ideal option if you have a very high body mass index (BMI) or if certain medical conditions prevent you from undergoing other types of weight-loss surgeries. For instance, individuals with Crohn's disease often cannot undergo procedures that reroute the small intestine due to potential flare-ups, but gastric sleeve surgery doesn't cause such issues.

    Why Choose Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

    • Significant Weight Loss: Lose 50-70% of excess weight within 12-18 months.
    • Appetite Control: Reduces hunger by lowering ghrelin hormone levels.
    • Health Improvements: Helps improve obesity-related conditions like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and joint pain.
    • Safe and Effective: Minimally invasive with low complication rates when performed by experienced surgeons.
