Testimonials
SPATZ BALLOON – WEIGHT LOSS
I have lost 28Kgs over 9months with Spatz Balloon, here is my story:
Weight loss has been a challenge for me as I have tried it so many ways, you know what I’m talking about – Diet & Exercise. It either doesn’t work or it doesn’t last.
Even if I followed the diet carefully – it was so difficult and eventually I failed, and did not know how to reduce weight. I needed some help in controlling my appetite – but diet did not work so well. When I heard about the success of balloons, I was very interested to see if it could work for me.
One day my doctor Dr Manoj Bharucha was testing a new adjustable balloon, he suggested that I try it. That’s how I ended up putting the balloon in my stomach. The first few days weren’t as bad as I expected. There was nausea and vomiting, but I managed to get through
After that it was much better. My appetite was reduced and I lost weight steadily. After about 6 months my appetite started to come back. My doctor recommended adding more fluid to the balloon, but I refused as I was happy about my weight. My life has changed. I am happy with the results so far. I also feel so proud when my friends and family members tell me I look great. Most important for me is that I feel satisfied.
Specializations
Laparoscopy
Laparoscopy is a surgical procedure in which a telescope is inserted through the abdominal wall to view the organs in the abdomen. This allows many surgeries to be performed non-invasively given certain conditions. Some of these are Appendicectomy, Gallbladder removal (Cholecystectomy), Hernia repairs and even advanced cancer operations, if the situation permits.
Open Surgery
Open surgery is the traditional type of surgery in which a cut or incision is made using a scalpel. You may have seen procedures on television or in the movies where a surgeon makes an incision, then performs surgery through that large incision. These incisions can range from 3-4 inches to very large, depending upon the procedure being performed. While minimally invasive surgery has become increasingly popular, there are a number of situations in which open surgery is still preferable.
Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery
Surgical treatment of obesity (Bariatric surgery) is the most effective long-term treatment modality for those patients suffering from higher degrees of obesity as measured by the BMI (Body Mass Index).
Bariatric surgery has not only positive effects on weight loss, but is also extremely effective in improving or resolving many of obesity-related comorbidities, which have evolved rapidly into the so-called metabolic surgery.
