Welcome to the Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery Department at Carezone Hospitals
Overview
At Carezone Hospitals, we understand that the journey to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight can be challenging. Our Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery Department is dedicated to providing comprehensive care and innovative solutions for individuals struggling with obesity and metabolic disorders. Our mission is to empower you with the tools and support needed to transform your life through personalized treatment plans and state-of-the-art surgical interventions.
Conditions We Treat
Obesity: Excess weight can lead to a range of health problems, including diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. Our team is committed to addressing obesity through a combination of surgical and non-surgical approaches tailored to each patient’s unique needs.
Type 2 Diabetes: For many individuals with type 2 diabetes, bariatric surgery can significantly improve blood sugar control and, in some cases, lead to remission. We offer specialized procedures to help manage and potentially reverse diabetes.
Hypertension: Obesity often contributes to high blood pressure. Our department provides treatments that not only help with weight loss but also aim to reduce or eliminate the need for hypertension medications.
Sleep Apnea: Excess weight is a common cause of obstructive sleep apnea. Our surgical solutions can improve sleep quality and reduce or eliminate the need for continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy.
Joint Pain: Excess weight places additional stress on joints, leading to pain and reduced mobility. Weight loss surgery can alleviate this strain and improve overall joint function.
Our Services
Comprehensive Evaluation: We begin with a thorough assessment to understand your health status and goals. Our multidisciplinary team includes surgeons, nutritionists, and psychologists who collaborate to create a personalized treatment plan.
Surgical Options:
Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y): This popular procedure involves creating a small stomach pouch and rerouting the small intestine to help reduce food intake and nutrient absorption.
Sleeve Gastrectomy: In this procedure, a large portion of the stomach is removed, leaving a sleeve-shaped stomach that limits food intake and promotes weight loss.
Adjustable Gastric Banding (Lap-Band): This minimally invasive option involves placing an adjustable band around the stomach to control food intake.
Non-Surgical Treatments:
Medical Weight Loss Programs: For those who may not be ready for surgery, we offer medically supervised weight loss programs that include diet modifications, exercise plans, and behavioral therapy.
Nutritional Counseling: Our expert dietitians provide personalized meal plans and nutritional advice to support your weight loss and overall health goals.
Post-Operative Care: Successful weight loss surgery is just the beginning. Our team provides ongoing support, including follow-up visits, counseling, and lifestyle coaching to ensure long-term success and well-being.
Patient Education: We believe in empowering our patients with knowledge. Our educational programs cover all aspects of bariatric surgery, from pre-operative preparation to post-operative care and lifestyle changes.
