What is obesity?

Obesity is a chronic disorder which is caused by a variety of factors and constitutes a threat to health in several ways, including through psychological and social interactive elements. Changing eating habits and reduced exercise will certainly contribute to this. Our department performs Gastric Banding, Biliopancreatic Derivation and the Gastric Bypass.

A surgical intervention?

The aim of a surgical intervention is not only to achieve weight loss, but also to maintain this weight loss. Also, the weight achieved should be as close as possible to the ideal weight. The purpose of a surgical intervention is to enable the body to do without excess calories, so that a new balance can be reached.
