Gastric Sleeve Surgery in India

Gastric sleeve surgery, also known as Sleeve Gastrectomy, is a bariatric procedure designed to help patients achieve significant and sustained weight loss. In this procedure, a large portion of the stomach is removed, leaving a narrow, sleeve-shaped stomach that limits food intake and reduces hunger hormones.

India offers advanced bariatric surgery centers, experienced surgeons, and comprehensive pre- and post-operative care for gastric sleeve patients.

  • Morbid obesity (BMI ≥40) or BMI ≥35 with comorbidities such as:

    • Type 2 Diabetes

    • Hypertension

    • Obstructive Sleep Apnea

    • Heart disease

  • Obesity-related joint pain or mobility issues

  • Severe metabolic disorders linked to obesity
