Obesity Surgery

 

A team of specialists of different disciplines (dietetics, internal medicine, psychology, anaesthesia and surgery) work in the Clinic with the medical and surgical treatment of obesity. This reflects up-to-date treatments of obesity, requiring a personalisation of therapy that can only be practised in a multi-disciplinary context.

The specialists of the Clinic can offer the obese patient the best medical or surgical therapy, on the basis of his or her psychological characteristics.

Besides bilio-pancreatic diversion and vertical gastroplastics, they practise adjustable gastric bandaging, the last evolution of obesity surgery. This technique requires minimum invasion, expecially if executed through laparoscopy, and is reversible and adjustable over time, dependant on the patient’s needs.
