Bariatric Surgery at Orlando Minimally Invasive Surgery
Choosing the right bariatric surgery is a significant step toward improving your long-term health and quality of life. At Orlando Minimally Invasive Surgery (OMIS), our expert team helps patients understand the full range of modern bariatric options—including gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, SADI-S, revisional surgery, lap band removal, and hiatal hernia repair performed with bariatric procedures—so you can confidently select the approach that best supports your goals.
Understanding Your Bariatric Surgery Options
Gastric Sleeve (Sleeve Gastrectomy)
Removes approximately 75–80% of the stomach to create a smaller “sleeve,” reducing food intake and lowering hunger hormones.
Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y)
Creates a small stomach pouch and reroutes a portion of the small intestine to limit both intake and absorption of calories, resulting in powerful long-term metabolic benefits.
Single Anastomosis Duodenal Switch (SADI-S)
A hybrid procedure that combines sleeve gastrectomy with a simplified intestinal bypass, offering substantial weight loss and metabolic improvement while preserving more normal nutrient absorption compared to traditional duodenal switch.
Revisional Bariatric Surgery (Including Sleeve-to-Bypass Conversion)
For patients who have had previous bariatric procedures, revisional surgery can address complications, inadequate weight loss, or persistent reflux. A common revision includes converting a gastric sleeve to a gastric bypass.
Lap Band Removal
Safely removes an adjustable gastric band for patients experiencing complications or insufficient weight loss. Many patients choose to transition to a more effective procedure, such as sleeve or bypass, during the same operation.
Hiatal Hernia Repair With Bariatric Surgery
Hiatal hernias are frequently discovered during bariatric surgery. When needed, OMIS surgeons repair the hernia during the same operation to improve reflux, support long-term weight loss success, and optimize surgical outcomes.
All bariatric procedures at OMIS are performed laparoscopically whenever possible, leading to smaller incisions, less discomfort, and faster recovery.
