Sleeve Gastrectomy Workshop by Dr. Ramen Goel

A less complicated surgery than Gastric Bypass, Sleeve Gastrectomy involves cutting away a large portion of the stomach in order to promote weight loss. Over 80% of the stomach from the left side is surgically removed leaving behind a tube-like structure that somewhat resembles a banana. This results in reduced absorption of calories and nutrients, which then leads to weight loss. There are several advantages of a Sleeve Gastrectomy - it is known to release hunger-suppressing hormones, has fewer complications as there is no disconnecting or reconnecting of the intestine. Moreover, it has also been proven to reduce comorbidities like diabetes, sleep apnoea, and hypertension by at least 75%.

Dr Ramen Goel and his highly skilled team of doctors at the Centre for Metabolic Surgery are renowned for the best care before, during, and after the operation. Book an appointment today for your consultation.
