Turning good surgeons into great ones

Non-Surgical Weight Loss

Non-surgical weight loss procedures include endoscopic options like gastric balloons (e.g., Orbera) and endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG), which reduce stomach capacity along with medications such as GLP-1 receptor agonists and GIP.

These methods are ideal for individuals with a BMI between 30–40 and offer reduced risk, minimal downtime, and effective long-term weight management.

Key Procedures

Intragastric Balloon: A soft balloon is inserted via endoscope and filled with saline to create fullness. It typically remains for six months.

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG): Sutures are placed in the stomach to reduce its size by up to 70%, limiting food intake.

Medical Weight Loss

Weight Loss Medications: FDA-approved medications such as semaglutide and tirzepatide help suppress appetite and increase fullness.

Lifestyle & Behavior Modification: Diet, exercise, and behavioral counseling programs ensure sustainable long-term results.
