Gastric Bypass Ireland

If you are wishing to lose weight but you are unsure about what procedure may be best for you then our bariatric surgery consultation may be the best option for you. This consultation is completely free and there is absolutely no obligation to book your procedure with us. During the consultation we can discuss all available weight loss options and go over the costs of each of them along with explaining our 0% finance option. We will be more than happy to answer any questions you have and you will be sent home with our information packs to read over before making your decision on whether to book your procedure or not.

Our gastric sleeve program has proven to be the most effective form of long term weight loss for our patients for many years. Our programme starts with your gastric sleeve procedure being carried out  in our state of the art, fully CHKS, NTPF and ISO accredited, private hospital in Dublin by our expert bariatric surgeon. Following the procedure, you will have lifetime after-care with our weight loss team, including unlimited appointments and 24/7 emergency phone support. Typically, we would expect our patients to lose approximately 6-7 stone (38-44kg) within the first year. However, this will vary from patient to patient depending on how strictly they stick to the given guidelines. Many of our patients have lost as much as 11 stone (69kg) within the first year. Here at Auralia Weight Loss Clinic we understand that the decision to undergo any form of procedure is not one which can be made easily. We also understand that most of our patients prefer to have all the available information before making a decision. For this reason, we offer all of our gastric sleeve patients free consultations. During this consultation we can discuss the procedure, the after-care programme and the patient requirements in far greater detail whilst also ensuring that the patient is an appropriate candidate for the procedure. There is no obligation to book the procedure with us during this consultation. It is more of an informal chat.

The gastric bypass or stomach bypass is one of the surgical techniques for treating morbid obesity. Alongside purely restrictive techniques, such as gastric banding, and largely malabsorptive techniques, such as Biliopancreatic Derivation by Scopinaro, this is a combined technique. As with a purely restrictive intervention such as the adjustable gastric band, this surgery is largely a restriction of the food intake, with reduced digestion a less important factor. However, the long-term results are noticeably better than those for purely restrictive surgery. This is due to reduced food intake and a reduced feeling of hunger.

All patients are welcome for a free of charge baratric consultations at our clinics to help them choice what type of obesity surgery will help you the most to lose your overweight

The gastric sleeve is the latest weight loss procedure that shows promising results. By restricting food absorbtion and reducing hunger the gastric sleeve might be your best option. Advantages of gastric sleeve include lower cost, less dumping, fewer complications and does not require adjustments after the initial surgery. How does the Gastric Sleeve work? The vertical sleeve gastrectomy is a restrictive form of weight loss surgery in which approximately 85% of the stomach is removed leaving a cylindrical or sleeve shaped stomach with a capacity ranging from about 60 to 150 cc, depending upon the surgeon performing the procedure.
