Our bariatric care team will get to know you, your unique health history, and your goals to determine which procedure could be right for you. At AdventHealth, we offer weight loss procedures, including:

  • Sleeve gastrectomy (VSG)
  • Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RNY)
  • Duodenal switch
  • Single Anastomosis Duodenal Switch (SADI)

Bariatric procedures are designed to reduce the amount of consumed food and reduce the digestion and absorption of calories. Your care team will help guide you through your options that best fit your lifestyle.
