Our experienced bariatric surgeon in Dubai, Dr. Samir, will conduct a thorough medical assessment to find the best approach for you.
The most common procedures include sleeve gastrectomy (stomach reduction surgery), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (rerouting the digestive tract), and mini gastric bypass (a simpler, single-loop bypass).
