Santa Maria Hospital is a leading facility for the treatment of obesity, offering a wide range of surgical interventions aimed at achieving long-term weight loss and maintenance. Our approach includes restrictive procedures, such as gastric banding and sleeve gastrectomy, which reduce stomach size to promote an earlier feeling of fullness; malabsorptive procedures, like biliopancreatic diversion and duodenal switch, which decrease calorie absorption; and combined procedures, such as gastric bypass, that integrate both restrictive and malabsorptive techniques to maximize weight loss outcomes.
