Surgical GI & Bariatric Solutions - Life Rx Healthcare\'s Advanced Path to Lasting Transformation

If conservative medical management fails to suffice for complicated gastrointestinal tract disorders or excessive obesity, Life Rx Healthcare provides innovative surgical options carried out by world-class surgeons and minimally invasive techniques. Our surgical team has vast experience in the surgical management of refractory GERD, complex inflammatory bowel diseases, liver diseases, colon cancer, and a full spectrum of bariatric procedures including gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, adjustable gastric banding, biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch, and more.

Each patient enters the surgical process following extensive preoperative testing and counselling to ensure that they thoroughly understand the risks and benefits of the surgical procedure and the anticipated lifestyle changes that surgery will entail. This all-inclusive preoperative process includes the examination of the patient’s medical history, various diagnostic tools, psychological evaluations, and extensive education and counselling about the procedure in order to optimize the surgical experience for patients, as well as long term success after surgery.

Advanced Surgical Bariatric Options:

• Gastric Banding Surgery: Creates a small stomach pouch and re-routes digestion in order to create significant weight loss and metabolic improvement.
• Complete Gastrectomy: Resects approximately 80% of the stomach, thus removing the hormone that creates hunger sensations, while creating a sense of fullness or satiety.
• Adjustment Gastric Banding: Places an adjustable band around the upper stomach which easily compresses in a way that gently controls the amount of food intake in order to create a reduced caloric intake, and therefore gradual weight loss.
• Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch: A more complex surgical procedure for the management of severe obesity, that combines restriction (similar to sleeve gastrectomy), but also creates malabsorption for more maximum weight loss.

Ideal Candidates for Surgical Procedures

• Patients suffering from refractory GERD - with quality-of-life dysfunction or severe complications.
• Patients with complicated inflammatory bowel disease who would benefit from a surgical solution.
• Individuals with clinically severe obesity (BMI ≥40, or ≥35 with significant comorbidities) who are willing to undergo a procedure for significant, sustainable weight loss.
• Patients that are willing to make dietary and lifestyle changes, and have follow-up medical appointments in order to achieve the optimal long-term outcome.
