Bariatric surgery

Also known as weight loss or metabolic surgery, bariatric surgery is an option when diet and exercise haven’t worked, or the patient has health problems associated with their excess weight. It can help to prevent serious future problems developing and can be used to treat conditions associated with obesity such as diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnoea and high cholesterol.

Bariatric surgery at Fi Clinica is performed by Vitalijus Eismontas, MD, PhD, a highly experienced abdominal and bariatric surgeon who performs more than 500 surgeries each year. 

All surgery is performed laparoscopically (keyhole surgery). Sleeve gastrectomy and gastric plication are techniques that reduce the size of the patient’s stomach, whereas gastric bypass surgery combines the creation of a smaller stomach with a bypass to shorten the gastrointestinal tract. At consultation, Dr Eismontas will advise on which procedure is most suitable for each individual case.

The correct diet following bariatric surgery is very important for long-term success. Bariatric patients at Fi Clinica are supported by the clinic’s dietician in the immediate postoperative period with follow-up in the years following.
