I’ve been trained in endoscopy, but I have yet to offer this to my patients for this reason. A regular gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, duodenal switch, or SADI are the best options for 90+ percent of my patients.

With that said, as with any surgical, endoscopic, or medical intervention, it’s essential that these decisions not be taken lightly. If, after research and consultation with a qualified professional, you believe that an endoscopic bariatric procedure is right for you, then by all means, pursue it, but do so with a very skilled and experienced surgeon.

Remember that weight loss is a life change, not just a prolonged diet. Any procedure, including bariatric surgery, is not a magic bullet. Patients need to be aware that they are embarking on a complex and lifelong journey that can be exceptionally satisfying.

Weight loss impacts your face. One of the most common concerns patients have is losing facial volume, the natural fat that keeps the face looking youthful and full. As the body loses fat, the face often does too, sometimes resulting in a more hollow or aged appearance. In today’s world where cosmetic procedures are common, this concern is valid. So what can you do about it? 🤔

The good news is there are ways to support facial aesthetics alongside weight loss, from collagen-boosting treatments to fillers and skin tightening options. We break it all down in our latest blog.

You’ve probably heard the term ESG floating around, but what exactly is it? ESG stands for Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty, a non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure that reduces the size of your stomach using sutures. No incisions, no permanent alterations to your anatomy. The goal? Help patients feel full sooner, eat less, and support weight loss without the need for traditional bariatric surgery.

We dig into the nitty gritty in our recent blog. Check it out here:

🧃Green powders are everywhere right now, and we get asked about them constantly. “Are these okay after bariatric surgery?” The truth? Not all green drinks are created equal.

Many are loaded with natural or artificial sweeteners to make them taste better, but that can backfire. For bariatric patients, managing cravings is crucial, and excess sweeteners can trigger those cravings, making weight maintenance harder. If you love the idea of a green powder, look for options that are low in sugar, free from artificial additives, and designed with real nutrition in mind.

We break it all down—what to look for, what to avoid, and whether these drinks are actually worth it for bariatric patients—in our latest blog.
