Education, North Shore Digestive Medicine
The solution to each patient’s weight management is unique to that patient. At North Shore Digestive Medicine, we don’t believe in cookie-cutter solutions. Some patients may need diet, exercise, and awareness of their eating habits. Some may require a medication-centered approach. Others may benefit from surgical techniques such as Surgical Sleeve or a Gastric Bypass, and some may benefit from Gastric Balloon or ESG. After an in-depth consultation, we will recommend how to proceed with your weight management journey.
Our Surgical Procedures
Surgical Sleeve Revision
Weight regain occurs most often due to stomach dilation. With Surgical Sleeve Revision, our professional physician re-tightens your stomach to its original post-surgical anatomy. This will lead to weight loss by causing early satiety and reduced oral intake.
Bypass Revision
Weight regain often occurs due to (a) dilation of the pouch, (b) dilation of the outlet, or (c) dilation of the pouch and outlet. Transoral outlet reduction (ToRe) is an endoscopic procedure that reduces the size of the pouch (if needed), the outlet, or the pouch and outlet (depending on each patient’s need) to the original post-bypass anatomy. This will help you feel full sooner and lose weight.
