• Gastric Bypass Surgery - the most common form of weight loss surgery. We, at Angeles Health, offer low cost gastric bypass surgery. We use the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, where we change the formation of your digestive system which enables us to literally bypass part of the digestion, reducing amount of food that are absorbed from the digestive system into the body.

• Gastric Band (Lap-Band) Surgery – This is another very popular weight loss surgery procedure. In this method, a gastric band which is made up of silicon is placed around the top of the stomach, creating a pouch at the top and a small opening into the rest of the stomach. This gastric band will control the rate at which food passes from the pouch to stomach and also it will make you feel full more quickly.

• Gastric Sleeve Surgery - People who are very obese or ill, the gastric sleeve surgery is the safest one.

• Gastric Sleeve Plication Surgery - In the sleeve plication surgery, we did not remove the stomach rather we just reduce the size of the stomach to a ‘sleeve’ shape, using surgical sutures.

• Green Zone Gastric Plication Surgery – In this surgical procedure, sutures are used to reduce the size of stomach. So, the process does not involve the actual removal of any tissue. Because it is a non-invasive form of surgery, the recovery time and risk of infection is highly reduced in this type of surgery.

• Green Zone Lap Band Surgery – A gastric band is inserted around the stomach in this type of surgery. The band is filled with fluid to adjust the size of the band as per the needs of the individual.
