Procedure Description

• The Gastric Sleeve / Sleeve Gastrectomy procedure
  is a minimally invasive procedure that takes less
  than an hour to perform.
• In this procedure a thin vertical stomach is
  created into a narrow tube like a banana. The
  remaining stomach is removed.

How It Works

• The Gastric Sleeve / Sleeve Gastrectomy procedure
  is a restrictive procedure that by creating a
  smaller stomach pouch, limits the amount of food
  that can be eaten at any one time. You feel full
  sooner and stay full longer. As you eat less food
  the body will stop storing excess calories and
  start using its fat supply for energy. In
  addition by removing a part of the stomach we
  eliminate a portion of the hunger hormone Grehlin
  which causes a decrease in appetite. Food passes
  through the digestive tract in the usual order
  allowing for normal digestion.

Your Surgery

• Dr. Bernie Hanna will perform a thorough
  pre-surgical consultation to determine whether
  you are a candidate for Gastric Sleeve surgery.
  He will evaluate your BMI, your overall health
  and any medications you are taking, as well as
  your weight loss needs and goals. Based on this
  information, he will tell you whether you are a
  candidate for surgery and whether this procedure
  or another weight loss procedure would be your
  best choice.
• In addition to Gastric Sleeve surgery, Dr. Hanna
  also performs Lap-Band, gastric bypass
  and revision weight loss surgery procedures. If
  you would like to learn more about these
  treatments and how they compare, contact Dr.
