Types of Weight Loss Surgery We Support

At MediWeight, we assess your medical history, weight loss goals, and overall health to determine the most suitable procedure. We provide support for:

A well-established surgical procedure that reduces the size of the stomach and reroutes the digestive system. Gastric bypass can lead to significant long-term weight loss and improvement in obesity-related conditions.

This procedure removes a portion of the stomach, limiting how much you can eat and helping regulate hunger hormones. Sleeve gastrectomy is a highly effective option for those looking for substantial weight loss results.

A non-surgical, temporary option where a balloon is inserted into the stomach to help control portion sizes and reduce appetite. Ideal for patients who may not be ready for permanent surgery or want to trial a medical weight loss approach first.

Why Consider Weight Loss Surgery?

Weight loss surgery isn’t just about losing weight – it’s about improving your overall health and quality of life. It can help with:

  • Reducing the risk of chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure
  • Improving mobility and joint health
  • Supporting mental health and self-confidence
  • Enhancing energy levels and sleep quality

Our team ensures you understand the risks, benefits, and post-surgery lifestyle changes before moving forward.
