MESSAGE FROM DR.PETERS

Many people do not realize the profound effect severe obesity has on the mind and body. The severely obese face social, health and psychological problems are not well recognized by our society. Obesity is not caused by lack of will power as is commonly believed. The difficulties faced in everyday life are often not appreciated. Tasks such as getting in and out of cars, simple daily hygiene, even tying your shoelaces all become challenging.

Life can all be overwhelming, especially when considering the serious and sometimes life threatening health risks that are caused by obesity. Obesity is strongly associated with high blood pressure, Diabetes, infertility, arthritis, heart and lung disease, and a shortened life span.

Obesity can severely affect the quality of your life! It is a disease that is so powerful that you alone cannot cure it. Just like any other disease, obesity needs intervention and should not be ignored. It is no one’s fault that he or she is obese. Many of you have probably struggled with why you are obese and feel defeated by your inability to change your weight. But no matter how many diets you try, diets often have a minimal and short term impact on weight loss. Statistics show despite diet plan, 95% of people will regain their weight. The only proven long-term solution to obesity and its related illness is weight loss surgery.

Weight Loss Surgery or Bariatric Surgery, despite its modest risks, can drastically improve your life. You can have control and make decisions toward a healthier future. We offer minimally invasive surgical options like laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG), Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass (RYGB), Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band (LAGB) using the most advanced techniques for permanently treating obesity and its related complications.

Gastric Bypass Surgery in India is a well-developed superspeciality. I have tried to answer most of the frequently asked questions that one has in his mind about this weight loss surgery.
