UP TO 50% OF EXCESS BODY WEIGHT MAY BE LOST THROUGH SURGERY.

Weight loss surgery is known as Bariatric or Metabolic Surgery. Changes are made
to the patient’s digestive system to assist in weight loss. Exercise and diet on
their own are often insufficient in patients with extreme or morbid obesity.
Bariatric Surgery alters the digestive process so food is no longer broken down
and absorbed in the normal way. People can lose weight with surgery by having a
gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, gastric band, or biliopancreatic diversion
with duodenal switch. All of these surgeries involve reducing the size of the
stomach and/or limiting the amount of food that can be consumed. By reducing the
stomach size, people are able to eat less food, leading to weight loss.

Typical candidates for Bariatric Surgery are

 * Patients with a BMI of 35-39 and significant health problems
 * Patients with a BMI of 40 or more
 * Lower BMIs are acceptable for procedures such as the Intragastric Balloon

“I would like to let you know that I am very pleased with the outcome of my
balloon procedure.  I have already started losing weight!  My treatment was
second to none and Dr Sofianos was efficient, polite and caring.”

Ayanda M.

“The care that I received was fantastic and I was made to feel at ease, and
comfortable at all times. The process was streamlined and efficient and I am
happy to report that I am 6 months out from my Sleeve Gastrectomy and could not
be happier. Thank you to the whole team for their care and support.”

Melissa D.

“I have struggled with my weight all my life, and I finally found a solution.
The recovery from the procedure was intense, but I had support every step of the
way. I am now comfortable within my own body and have been stable at my goal
weight for over a year and will be seeing the Plastic Surgeon soon. I’m very
impressed with whole procedure from start to finish.”
