Weight Loss Surgery

Bariatrics Melbourne provides a comprehensive range of weight loss procedures.

We have a special interest in revisional weight loss surgery, for patients seeking options after an unsuccessful previous procedure.

Using a patient centred approach, we strive to engage patients in a collaborative, evidence-based decision making process. 

It is important that patients are empowered to make an informed decision regarding weight loss surgery. Those considering weight loss surgery should understand the balanced surgical risk and lifestyle change that such a decision involves. 

We aim to educate our patients on the expected short and long term outcomes of weight loss surgery by setting realistic attainable goals. 

The vast majority of our surgery is minimally invasive (key hole). 

Bariatrics Melbourne offers the full range of bariatric procedures including:

• Sleeve Gastrectomy
• Intragastric Balloon
• Gastric Bypass
  • One anastomosis (also called Mini-bypass)
  • Roux-en-Y
• Revisional Bariatric Surgery
• Malabsorbative procedures

While bariatric surgery is usually indicated for patients that have BMI of >35, we are happy to see all patients who are concerned about their weight. Calculate you BMI with our calculator. 

Patients will be considered for treatment on a case by case basis with an individualised weight loss plan. 

Uninsured patients seeking self funded surgery within the private system are also most welcome. 

Obesity is a significant problem in Australia. 70% of Australians are either obese or overweight.

Surgical treatment is highly effective and proven way to obtain sustained weight loss.
