1. Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy
The most popular weight loss surgery, sleeve gastrectomy involves removing 75-80% of the stomach, creating a sleeve-shaped pouch. This procedure reduces hunger hormones and limits food intake, resulting in significant weight loss. Dr. Bhavsar performs this advanced laparoscopic procedure with minimal invasive techniques for faster recovery.
2. Robotic Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y)
Using the da Vinci robotic system, Dr. Bhavsar performs precision gastric bypass surgery. This procedure creates a small gastric pouch and reroutes the intestines, leading to both restrictive and malabsorptive weight loss. The robotic approach ensures enhanced precision and reduced complications.
3. Adjustable Gastric Banding (Lap Band)
A reversible procedure where an adjustable silicone band is placed around the upper stomach to create a small pouch. This minimally invasive approach is ideal for patients seeking gradual weight loss with adjustable restriction.
4. Revisional Bariatric Surgery
Dr. Bhavsar specializes in complex revisional procedures for patients who have had previous weight loss surgeries with inadequate results or complications. His expertise in both laparoscopic and robotic techniques ensures optimal outcomes.
