When is bariatric surgery justified?
Surgery is prescribed only when clear criteria are met
The role of body mass index (BMI)
To gauge obesity, doctors rely primarily on BMI, which equals body weight (kg) divided by the square of height (m²). An operation is usually warranted with a BMI over 40, or over 35 with serious associated conditions. Occasionally surgery is weighed at lower values as well, once non-surgical options have failed.
Key factors
- The patient's body mass index (BMI)
- Overall health and any related chronic conditions
- Past attempts to shed weight in conventional ways were unsuccessful
Why don't diets and exercise work for everyone?
Many people try various diets and exercise for years, but the body fights back: metabolism slows, appetite grows and the lost weight returns. When it becomes clear that diet changes and medication alone cannot fundamentally improve the situation, bariatric surgery becomes the only effective way out.

Bariatric surgery methods at City Medical Centre
Sleeve gastrectomy
The surgeon removes the larger part of the stomach so it becomes a narrow tube. This strongly reduces how much fits in a portion and lowers ghrelin, the hunger hormone; the patient feels full faster and eats less.
Effectiveness: recommended for a BMI of 35 to 45. Typically patients shed 60–70% of excess weight.
Specifics: compared with bypass operations, the result is less stable. When the diet is not followed — notably with high-calorie drinks and liquid food — weight may return.
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
The surgeon builds a 50–70 ml pouch in the upper part of the stomach and attaches it directly to the small intestine. This caps food intake and lowers calorie absorption by shortening food's route through the gut.
Effectiveness: this operation is seen as the “gold standard” with a BMI above 45–50 and type 2 diabetes. Excess weight falls by up to 75–85%.
Specifics: results hold better than with other bariatric methods. Related conditions like diabetes and hypertension frequently go into remission. Since digestive anatomy is altered, vitamin and mineral supplements are needed for life.
Mini gastric bypass (MGB)
An advanced version of the classic bypass. Differing from the standard method, it involves only one connection (anastomosis) from the small stomach to the small intestine. The simpler technique is gentler on patients and needs a shorter recovery period.
Effectiveness: on par with the classic Roux-en-Y bypass — patients shed up to 75–80% of excess weight.
Specifics: the operation is shorter and recovery faster. Reversal is technically possible, but a single anastomosis means a risk of bile reflux.
Single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass (SADI-S)
SADI-S is a modern combination technique that draws on the benefits of both sleeve gastrectomy and intestinal bypass. In two stages, the stomach is first converted into a narrow tube and the small intestine is then rerouted to exclude its greater part from active digestion.
Effectiveness: one of the strongest bariatric procedures, with 80–90% excess weight loss and a long-lasting result.
Specifics: with the ghrelin-producing zone removed, the smaller stomach reduces appetite; redirecting food past part of the intestine limits calorie uptake. Used for super obesity (BMI over 50), severe type 2 diabetes, or as a second stage when a sleeve was ineffective.

City Medical Centre bariatric surgery centre
— your path
to confidence and harmony
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
Our doctors decide on the surgical method case by case. Before choosing, they evaluate your health, weight history and related conditions in order to offer the surgical treatment that fits best.
Support that stays in touch
The City Medical Centre team stays with you after surgery. Throughout the first year, specialists track your weight loss, monitor your tests and answer all questions about diet and recovery.
Fast recovery
City Medical Centre's bariatric operations are laparoscopic, so recovery is much shorter. On day one most patients are already up and moving, and within a week they return to normal life.
Full diagnostics on site
Skip the trips between clinics. Our centre provides everything for your work-up, our own lab through ultrasound and gastroscopy. Prep is quick and free of queues, all in one building.
Recovery after bariatric surgery
Recovery is mostly down to the individual; still, minimally invasive laparoscopic methods keep rehabilitation as short as possible.
Duration
For 1 to 5 days the patient stays in the clinic under observation; this depends on the surgery's extent and related conditions.
Activity
In the first hours after the operation you can sit up, stand and drink fluids.
Wound care
Absorbable sutures are used; they dissolve on their own.
Work
7–14 days after surgery you can return to work, depending on how physical the job is.
Restrictions
No bathhouse, sauna or intense physical exercise during the first weeks.
Diet
Doctors prescribe a staged diet for 1–2 months, from liquids through to solids, for the stomach to adapt.
Pace
When they follow specialist advice, patients lose an average of 10% of excess weight each month.
Stabilization
The final result takes 1.5–2 years. By that stage, the patient has stable eating habits in place that block weight regain.
Important! Specialists from City Medical Centre supervise recovery and provide psychological and medical support at each weight-loss stage.

Frequently asked questions
about bariatric surgery at CMC
Bariatric vs plastic surgery: what's the difference?
Many confuse the two, yet their purposes are fundamentally different. Bariatric surgery is medicine's treatment for obesity and related diseases: it changes how the digestive tract operates and addresses the causes of excess weight and metabolism. Plastic surgery reshapes outer contours of the body without treating obesity or affecting metabolism.
How soon can I return to work and normal life?
Will there be visible scars?
The operation uses modern laparoscopic technique, through 4 small punctures of 5 to 15 mm. We place cosmetic sutures, and after healing the marks become almost invisible.
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?
There are four main types of bariatric surgery at City Medical Centre: sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, mini gastric bypass (MGB) and SADI-S duodeno-ileal bypass. BMI, related conditions and the patient's goals guide the individual choice of method.
Can I plan a pregnancy after surgery?
Pregnancy is possible after bariatric surgery; doctors advise waiting no less than 12–18 months. This gives the body time to stabilize, for weight to reach target values and nutritional status to normalize.
Do I need to take vitamins after surgery?
Yes, after bariatric surgery vitamins cannot be skipped. As the digestive anatomy changes, some nutrients are absorbed less well, making regular vitamin and mineral supplements a permanent feature of the patient's life.
Can the weight come back?
After bariatric surgery weight regain can happen, but it is very unlikely if the doctor's advice is followed. What matters is proper nutrition, avoiding high-calorie drinks and regular follow-up with City Medical Centre specialists.

Choosing a bariatric method in Ulhasnagar
Sleeve gastrectomy turns most of the stomach into a narrow tube, reducing portion size and levels of ghrelin, the hunger hormone. It suits a BMI of 35 to 45, with patients losing on average 60–70% of excess weight. For anyone from Ulhasnagar with a higher BMI or type 2 diabetes, a bypass may fit better; the surgeon compares options at the consultation.
A personal coordinator is assigned from day one, so no one goes through the process alone. After the first examination, each patient gets an individual diagnostic programme to identify every disorder in the body. Then the surgeon selects the method and performs the laparoscopic operation, and a doctor stays nearby 24/7. That is the sequence for everyone from Ulhasnagar.
Everything needed for the result is combined in one package, with no hidden fees and no surprises. For patients from Ulhasnagar, it includes surgery by a dedicated team, round-the-clock care in the ward with meals and nursing, a doctor nearby 24/7 and a personal coordinator. The first step is a free 15-minute consultation with a bariatric surgeon.
