Diagnostics and Planning
Before any procedure, patients receive a thorough pre-operative evaluation. This ensures safety and suitability for treatment. The standard diagnostic package includes:
- Pre-operative anesthesia examination.
- Pre-operative chest examination.
- Pre-operative cardiology consultation.
Non-Surgical Treatment Options
Dr. HE Clinic specializes in several endoscopic and swallowable balloon procedures. These are reversible and do not require surgery. Options include:
- SPATZ 3 Adjustable Gastric Balloon: This is placed endoscopically and remains for 12 months. It can be adjusted every three months to maintain effectiveness.
- Elipse (Allurion) Swallowable Balloon: Patients swallow a capsule containing the balloon. It does not require an endoscopy for placement and stays for about 4 months.
- 6-Month Gastric Balloon (MEDSIL): A standard non-adjustable balloon that is placed and removed endoscopically over a six-month period.
- Gastric Botox: This involves an endoscopic injection of botulinum toxin into the stomach. It temporarily reduces appetite to aid weight loss.
Surgical Treatment: Gastric Sleeve
For a permanent solution, the clinic performs laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. This surgery reduces stomach size by about 80%. It is performed under general anesthesia using Medtronic equipment. The all-inclusive package covers the surgery, pre-operative exams, and extensive aftercare. Patients receive one year of support via WhatsApp from both a physician and a dietician. The clinic also provides lifelong patient care follow-up.
