At Prakriti Hospital, we understand the challenges associated with weight loss and the significant impact it can have on your health and well-being. Our Bariatric Surgery department offers a range of surgical procedures, along with comprehensive pre- and post-operative care, to help you achieve your weight loss goals and improve your overall health.
Who is a candidate for Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery may be considered for individuals who:
● Have a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or above (or 35 or above with significant weight-related health problems).
● Have been unable to lose weight and maintain it through lifestyle modifications (diet and exercise) for a sustained period.
● Are in good overall health and have no major medical conditions that would make surgery too risky.
Types of Bariatric Surgery offered at Prakriti Hospital:
● Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: This procedure reduces the size of the stomach, restricting food intake and promoting weight loss.
● Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: This procedure creates a smaller pouch in the stomach and reroutes part of the small intestine, leading to reduced calorie absorption.
● Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding: This procedure involves placing an adjustable band around the upper portion of the stomach, creating a smaller pouch and restricting food intake.
