AT OBESIUM PEOPLE COME FIRST.
We care about you.
Our mission is to help obese patients achieve their proper weight, while enjoying an active and healthy lifestyle.
At Obesium we are aware of the modern lifestyle which includes overeating, being sedentary, high stress, etc. This does not help to achieve a good physical condition, however it is possible with the right medical support. Many other patients have already achieved it!
“For us, a good quality of life is about much more than a healthy weight, and we want to help you achieve all of it.”

GASTRIC
SLEEVE
It is the restrictive surgery with the best results. It is relatively simple and reproducible. Nowadays, this type of bariatric surgery is the most commonly performed in the world. It consists of reducing the stomach capacity in 80%. It is also used as a bridge technique in super obesity (BMI>50). It is ideal for patients without reflux or diabetes, and a BMI between 35-45.

ROUX-EN-Y GASTRIC BYPASS
It is the safest mixed surgery in the long term. We have a large amount of scientific evidence about its safety and satisfying results. It consist of reducing the gastric reservoir, and adding an intermediate malabsorptive component. Two anastomosis are performed. This kind of surgery is ideal for non-smoking, diabetic or gastroesophageal reflux patients.

MINIGASTRIC BYPASS
This is a recently developed mixed-malabsorptive surgery, technically simpler than the traditional gastric bypass. It consists of reducing the gastric reservoir, and adding a malabsorptive component larger than the bypass one. Only one anastomosis is performed. It is ideal for non-smoking patients, with a BMI > 50 and/or metabolic syndrome.
