Specialization and Bariatric Approach
Dr. Mickevicius treats patients with obesity using minimally invasive methods. He follows protocols for long-term safety and preoperative care. The doctor personally performs postoperative follow-up in both Lithuania and the UK. He performs several key procedures:
- Gastric bypass
- Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
- Gastric sleeve surgery (Sleeve gastrectomy)
- Gastric plication
- Revisional bariatric surgeries
- Post-bariatric plastic surgery
Operations are performed using Karl Storz laparoscopic equipment. These tools from Germany allow for precise movements through small incisions. This approach typically leads to faster recovery times for the patient.
