If you have been struggling with obesity and have not achieved lasting results through diet, exercise, or medication, Bariatric Surgery may be the solution. At GBL Barala Hospital, we offer advanced, minimally invasive weight loss surgery to help patients achieve sustainable weight loss and improve their overall health and quality of life.
Our experienced bariatric surgeons use the latest laparoscopic techniques to ensure safer procedures, smaller incisions, faster recovery, and better long-term outcomes.
What is Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery is a specialized surgical procedure designed to help people with severe obesity lose weight by reducing the size of the stomach and, in some cases, altering the digestive process. It not only helps patients lose excess weight but also improves obesity-related health conditions.
The surgery is recommended for individuals who have been unable to lose weight through conventional methods and whose obesity is affecting their health.
Who Can Benefit from Bariatric Surgery?
You may be a suitable candidate if you have:
- BMI of 40 or above
- BMI of 35 or above with conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or sleep apnea
- Severe obesity affecting your daily activities
- Failed attempts with diet and exercise
- Obesity-related joint pain or mobility issues
- Fatty liver disease
- Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) associated with obesity
Our specialists conduct a comprehensive evaluation before recommending surgery.

Gastric Bypass Surgery
This procedure creates a smaller stomach pouch and reroutes part of the small intestine, helping reduce calorie absorption.
