Why choose Mayo Clinic for weight-loss surgery

• Experience. Surgeons at Mayo Clinic perform about weight-loss surgeries each year.
• Innovative procedures. Mayo Clinic surgeons and gastroenterologists are involved in developing the latest in weight-loss surgeries and procedures, such as endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty and intragastric balloons. Mayo Clinic's Weight Regain Clinic is also offering a new endoscopic procedure to patients who had gastric bypass surgery in the past but have regained weight. This endoscopic procedure uses a minimally invasive endoscopic suturing device to reduce the size of the gastric pouch and outlet to improve the feeling of fullness and aid in weight loss.
• Team approach. A team of medical experts, including endocrinologists, gastroenterologists, surgeons, dietitians and psychologists, helps identify candidates who could most benefit from weight-loss surgeries or procedures. The team works intensively with you before and after your procedure or surgery to help you achieve a long-lasting result.
