About Bariatric Surgery in Vijayawada

Bariatric (weight-loss) surgery changes the stomach and/or intestine to reduce how much you can eat and how your body handles food. It is considered for people with severe obesity, especially when obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes or sleep apnoea are present. Bariatric Surgery procedures treat the stomach and digestive tract. 1 of the 4 bariatric surgery treatments on Go Surgery is usually a planned procedure with a same day or next day discharge.

Common operations include sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass. Surgery is a tool rather than a cure — long-term success depends on lifelong dietary changes, activity, vitamin supplements and regular follow-up.
