Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG)
Performed by Dr. Charles Asa Reynolds
The Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy, often called the "sleeve" is a minimally invasive weight loss surgery that involves removing a portion of the stomach to create a smaller sleeve-shaped stomach. This limits the amount of food your stomach can hold, leading to reduced calorie intake and helping you shed excess weight.
Key Benefits of VSG:
- Improvement in medical conditions including type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and more
- Limits the amount of food intake as well as reducing the desire to eat
- Significant long-term weight loss
- Improvement in health and overall quality of life
