Gastric Sleeve Encino

It’s entirely understandable if obese patients who are contemplating weight loss surgery feel somewhat intimidated and don’t know where to start. As the medical network for such surgeries as a lap band or sleeve gastrectomy Encino residents rely on, Beverly Hills Physicians is here to help prospective weight loss patients take their first step on the road to a healthier and happier life.

All weight loss procedures begin with the idea of limiting the appetite by restricting the amount of food the patient can comfortably eat and digest, usually by literally reducing the size of the stomach. The lap band procedure is a favored choice of many patients because it is minimally invasive, adjustable and even reversible. It essentially ties of the majority of the stomach, drastically limiting its capacity.

A gastric sleeve is more permanent, removing approximately 85 percent of the stomach, but doctors often recommend it because it is highly effective. This is particularly true when it comes to the impossible-to-ignore feelings of appetite or even hunger which plague dieters even when they know full well that they have consumed enough food.

While there are many more details regarding obtaining a bariatric procedure, the good news is that patients need not go it alone. Beverly Hills Physicians is here to provide information and support at every step of the way, as well as the finest board certified surgeons in California. From your free initial consultation to the day you lose your last unwanted pound, we provide not only the finest medical doctors, but also outstanding nutritional and psychological counseling to ensure the best possible outcome. For more information, please call 800-788-1416.
