VSG Bariatric Surgeries
SIPS Surgery
SIPS (Stomach Intestinal Pylorus-Sparing) Surgery is a bariatric surgical procedure designed to assist with weight loss by reducing the size of the stomach and rerouting the digestive tract. This surgery is a modification of the traditional duodenal switch surgery, preserving the pyloric valve and avoiding the risk of dumping syndrome.

Success Rate: With a proper diet and exercise, patients can expect to lose 70-80% of their excess weight within two years of the surgery.
Recovery: Patients typically stay in the hospital for 2-3 days after SIPS surgery. Full recovery, including return to normal activities, is usually expected within 4-6 weeks.
AspireAssist
AspireAssist is a non-surgical weight loss procedure that involves the use of a thin tube to drain a portion of food from the stomach after eating. This process, known as aspiration, is done about 20 to 30 minutes after the meal and helps to reduce the amount of calories absorbed by the body. The procedure is minimally invasive, reversible, and is performed under light sedation.
