Gastric Sleeve Surgery
Gastric Sleeve Surgery is a method to help promote the speed and success of weight loss in patients suffering from obesity. Weight loss surgery, also known as bariatric surgery, has many different methods all designed to either shrink the size of the stomach or reduce the amount of food intake of a patient. The end goal is to create the feelings of being full up or not hungry so patients no longer want to keep eating. Naturally, as they lower the amount of calories consumed the weight will start to burn off the body. Due to the weight loss surgery this process is accelerated dramatically. For patients who are morbidly obese or dangerously overweight, gastric sleeve surgery or other forms of bariatric surgery can be a life saving procedure.
