What Is Weight Loss Surgery & What are My Options?

What is Bariatric Surgery?

Weight loss (bariatric) surgery works by changing how the body processes food and regulates hunger, helping patients lose significant weight and improve or even reverse conditions such as diabetes, sleep apnea, and high blood pressure.

What Are My Options?

Dr. Mehta and the TLC | Surgery team understand that every patient’s weight loss journey is unique. That’s why they offer a comprehensive range of advanced, minimally invasive surgical options tailored to individual needs and goals.

Gastric Sleeve (Sleeve Gastrectomy): Reduces the size of the stomach to limit food intake and decrease hunger hormones, supporting steady, sustainable weight loss.

Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y): Reroutes the digestive system to change how the body absorbs food, promoting significant and long-term results.

Revisional Surgery: Addresses or refines previous weight loss procedures to improve outcomes and ensure continued success.

Dr. Mehta takes time to understand each patient’s medical history, lifestyle, and goals before recommending a surgical plan, ensuring a personalized approach to achieving lasting health and confidence.
