Surgical Options for Obesity Management

Broadly speaking there currently are 2 main surgical options:

• Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty

• Gastri Bypass Surgery

We are a gastroenterology and endoscopy practice, and hence surgery is not our area of expertise. However during our thorough assessment, we do inform our patients if they are best suited to undergo surgical therapy.
