Surgery is prescribed only when clear criteria are met
BMI is the key measure used to assess how severe obesity is. You get it by dividing body weight (kg) by height squared (m²). Surgery is generally justified at a BMI above 40, or above 35 when serious related conditions are present. Sometimes it is also considered at lower values — when non-surgical methods have not worked.
Many people keep trying diets and exercise for years while the body resists: metabolism slows, appetite climbs and the weight they lost comes back. When diet changes and medicines alone clearly cannot fundamentally improve the situation, bariatric surgery turns into the only effective way out.

Sleeve gastrectomy
Here the surgeon removes most of the stomach, reshaping it into a narrow tube. That greatly limits portion size and lowers ghrelin, the hunger hormone — the patient feels full much more quickly and eats less.
Effectiveness: the method is appropriate for a BMI of 35 to 45. Average loss of excess weight is 60–70%.
Specifics: the result is less durable than with bypass operations. If the diet is not followed, especially with high-calorie drinks and liquid food, the weight can return.

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
A small pouch of 50–70 ml is created from the upper stomach and connected directly to the small intestine. Food intake is limited, and fewer calories are absorbed because food travels a shorter path through the gut.
Effectiveness: for a BMI over 45–50 with type 2 diabetes it is deemed the “gold standard”. Loss of excess weight is 75–85%.
Specifics: the effect lasts longer than with other bariatric methods. Related diseases, including diabetes and hypertension, often reach remission. As digestive anatomy changes, supplements of vitamins and minerals are needed for life.

Mini gastric bypass (MGB)
It is an improved variant of the classic bypass. Unlike the standard method, here the surgeon forms only one connection (anastomosis) linking the small stomach to the small intestine. The simpler technique is less demanding and needs less recovery time.
Effectiveness: comparable to the classic Roux-en-Y bypass — patients lose up to 75–80% of excess weight.
Specifics: a faster operation and shorter recovery. The procedure can be undone technically, but there is a bile reflux risk from the single anastomosis.

Single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass (SADI-S)
SADI-S is a contemporary combined technique uniting what is best in sleeve gastrectomy and intestinal bypass. Two stages are involved: first a narrow tube is formed from the stomach, then the small intestine is rerouted, leaving most of it outside active digestion.
Effectiveness: ranks among the most powerful bariatric operations: up to 80–90% of excess weight lost, with lasting results.
Specifics: the reduced stomach lowers appetite once the ghrelin-producing zone is removed, and routing food past a section of intestine limits how many calories are absorbed. Suitable for super obesity (BMI over 50), severe type 2 diabetes, or as a second stage after an ineffective sleeve.

The approach to obesity at City Medical Centre is comprehensive. Following an initial examination, a personal diagnostic program — lab and instrumental — is drawn up for each patient to detect every disorder in the body.

A method matched to your goal
Each patient gets an individually chosen surgical method from our doctors. Before a decision, they look at your health, weight history and associated conditions to recommend the most fitting surgical treatment.

Support that stays in touch
After surgery, the team at City Medical Centre stays with you. For the entire first year, specialists keep track of your weight loss, oversee your tests and answer all questions about diet and recovery.

Fast recovery
Bariatric operations at City Medical Centre are laparoscopic, which greatly shortens recovery. Most patients are up and moving on day one and return to normal life within a week.

Full diagnostics on site
No need to run between clinics. Our centre has everything for your work-up, from our own lab to ultrasound and gastroscopy. Preparation is quick, with no queues, all in one building.
Recovery largely depends on the individual, but minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques keep rehabilitation as short as possible.

Duration
Observation at the clinic lasts 1 to 5 days, based on how extensive the surgery is and on related conditions.
Activity
You are permitted to sit up, stand and drink fluids in the first hours after surgery.
Wound care
Absorbable sutures are used; they dissolve on their own.

Work
Back to work in 7–14 days after surgery, depending on how physical your job happens to be.
Restrictions
Bathhouse, sauna and intense physical exercise are banned in early weeks.
Diet
You follow a staged diet for 1–2 months, going from liquid to solid food as the stomach adapts.

Pace
By following the specialists' advice, patients lose 10% of excess weight per month on average.
Stabilization
Reaching the final result takes 1.5–2 years. The patient has by then built steady eating habits that prevent weight from returning.
Important! Recovery takes place under the supervision of City Medical Centre specialists, who give psychological and medical support at all weight-loss stages.

Bariatric vs plastic surgery: what's the difference?
Many people confuse the two, but their goals are fundamentally different. Bariatric surgery is a medical treatment for obesity and related diseases. It changes how the digestive tract works, addressing the causes of excess weight and metabolism. Plastic surgery reshapes the body's outer contours; it does not treat obesity or affect metabolism.
How soon can I return to work and normal life?
Will there be visible scars?
Modern laparoscopic technique allows the operation through 4 small punctures of 5 to 15 mm. Cosmetic sutures make the marks almost invisible when fully healed.
What diet do I need to follow?
Your diet changes in stages: from liquid food to soft, then to solid. The focus is on protein and on limiting high-calorie, fatty food.
What types of bariatric surgery are there?
City Medical Centre offers four main types of bariatric surgery: sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, mini gastric bypass (MGB) and SADI-S duodeno-ileal bypass. The method is chosen individually according to BMI, related conditions and the patient's goals.
Can I plan a pregnancy after surgery?
You can become pregnant after bariatric surgery, but doctors advise a wait of at least 12–18 months. Over this period the body stabilizes, weight hits target values and nutritional status normalizes.
Do I need to take vitamins after surgery?
Yes, bariatric surgery makes vitamins a must. Since digestive anatomy is changed, absorption of some nutrients drops, and regular vitamin and mineral supplements become permanent in the patient's life.
Can the weight come back?
Weight may return after bariatric surgery, though that is very unlikely when you follow the doctor's advice. Key factors: proper nutrition, avoiding high-calorie drinks and regular follow-up with City Medical Centre specialists.

Mini gastric bypass is an improved version of the classic operation with a single connection between the small stomach and the intestine. The technique is simpler, recovery shorter, and weight loss reaches 75–80% of excess weight. It is technically reversible, but bile reflux is a possible risk. For people from Bhiwandi, the surgeon explains such trade-offs before any decision.
During the operation the surgeon works laparoscopically, which keeps rehabilitation as short as possible. Right after, you are under round-the-clock care in a ward, with meals and nursing included. After discharge, most people in Bhiwandi return to their normal routine within a week, following a diet plan and avoiding saunas and heavy exercise for the first weeks.
If you are comparing bariatric surgery options in Bhiwandi, look beyond the operation itself. Here the package bundles the work-up in the centre's own lab, laparoscopic surgery, the stay with meals and nursing, a doctor on hand 24/7 and a year of follow-up.
