GASTRIC SLEEVE

Also calle­d sleeve gastre­ctomy, vertical sleeve­ gastrectomy, or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, this surgical option is effective­ in promoting significant and sustainable weight loss for those struggling with obe­sity. 

In this minimally invasive surgery, a large­ portion of the stomach is removed to cre­ate a smaller, pouch-shaped stomach known as a sle­eve.

Am I a Good Candidate for Gastric Sleeve Surgery?

Body Mass Index (BMI)

One of the first things to consider is your Body Mass Index (BMI). Typically, a BMI of 40 or higher, or a BMI of 35 or higher with obesity-related health issues, qualifies you as a potential candidate for gastric sleeve surgery. At Body Says Clinic, we offer comprehensive preoperative evaluations to assess your BMI and overall health.

Health Conditions

If you suffer from obesity-related health conditions like type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, or heart disease, gastric sleeve surgery can potentially provide significant health benefits. This surgery can help alleviate symptoms and improve your well-being by reducing excess weight.

Previous Weight-Loss Attempts

If you’ve struggled with numerous weight-loss attempts, including dieting, exercise, and other interventions, without achieving significant, sustainable results, gastric sleeve surgery could be a viable option. Body Says experienced medical professionals will guide you and provide personalized support for long-term success.
