Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass

Surgeons use staples to create a small stomach pouch that limits the amount of food you consume. Creating a pouch also limits the release of appetite-stimulating hormones, so you aren’t as hungry. We seal the remaining portion of the stomach and leave it in place.

Gastric sleeve surgery
Gastric Sleeve Surgery

We remove most of the stomach and staple the ends together, creating a small tube. This procedure does not disrupt digestive organ positioning, which lowers the risk of vitamin deficiencies.

Surgeons perform a gastric sleeve procedure to reduce stomach volume. Like gastric bypass, we reroute the intestines to deposit partially digested food further along in the small intestine.

Revisional Bariatric Surgery

This option is for people who are not satisfied with the results of a previous bariatric procedure. You may need surgery to repair complications, such as stomach pouch stretching or staples, that didn’t hold.

Laparoscopic Surgery

Instead of making one large incision, surgeons make several tiny ones. They guide slender instruments and a camera through the holes to carry out the procedure.
