The Minimally Invasive and Weight Loss Surgery team understands the challenges for those living with obesity and works with each patient to find the best treatment and surgical option. At Boston Medical Center, we offer two types of weight loss surgery: gastric bypass and gastric sleeve (vertical sleeve gastrectomy). In addition, we have extensive experience in revision weight loss surgery to treat complications associated with previous bariatric surgeries. Our surgeons have performed thousands of successful operations and our Weight Loss Surgery Program is recognized as a Center of Excellence by the American College of Surgeons.
