Bariatric Surgeries Offered at TriHealth Weight Management
TriHealth Weight Management offer two primary types of bariatric surgery:
- Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: Part of the stomach is removed creating a sleeve configuration. This limits the amount of food intake and hormones helping with weight loss.
- Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: A small stomach pouch is made and rearrangement of the small intestine. This procedure limits the amount of calories absorbed and changes gut hormones that helps with satiety.
The surgical teams are unrivaled in their experience, with more than 3,000 bariatric procedures performed at TriHealth’s Good Samaritan Hospital.
Non-Surgical Medically-Guided Weight Loss Program
For those interested in a non-surgical option, TriHealth also has a robust nonsurgical weight loss program that includes:
- MedGem Metabolism Testing: measures resting metabolism to aid in designing a personalized approach to weight loss.
- Fresh Steps Meal Replacement Plan: A comprehensive, meal replacement-based, weight loss plan.
- Weight Loss Medications: when indicated and prescribed under close supervision: We offer many FDA-approved weight loss medications to help you succeed!
These elements are combined in individualized plans to meet the patients’ unique needs and preferences.
