Morbid Obesity is a global health burden that affects millions across diverse countries, ethnicities, and populations.
Obesity, defined as an excessive or disproportionate body mass compared to one’s height and gender, is often associated with comorbidities like Diabetes Mellitus (high blood sugar), Hypertension (high BP), hyperlipidemia (abnormal fats), PCOD/infertility, joint strain, back pain, fatty liver, and sleep apnea. If left unmanaged, it impairs heart, liver, and kidney function, increasing the likelihood of kidney failure, cardiovascular disease, cancers, and other chronic illnesses drastically lowering quality of life.
Alongside physical issues, obesity also leads to deep psychological stress. Depression, fluctuating mood, withdrawal from social life, and poor body image often result in diminished self-worth and suicidal thoughts. This raises a key question for individuals and their caregivers: what is the way forward? Although healthy food habits, calorie control, and regular workouts are crucial, they often yield limited or slow progress.
To break this cycle, medical intervention led by a multidisciplinary team of surgeons, nutritionists, and skilled staff becomes essential.
At MASSH PROLIFE Ludhiana, the Department of Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery provides advanced surgical options that target obesity holistically and help reverse related health issues. These include:
Bariatrics is a focused medical specialty addressing obesity using surgical techniques that modify the gastrointestinal tract to aid long-term weight loss.
Performed by expert bariatric surgeons, the surgeries fall into restrictive, malabsorptive, or hybrid categories. Though this classification has been in practice for years, it remains effective and clinically validated. These procedures also improve hormone profiles and are proven to manage diabetes, even in Class 1 Obesity.
Bariatric surgery promotes lasting weight reduction and lowers the risk of numerous obesity-linked illnesses, such as:
These surgical interventions are usually offered when consistent medical efforts like supervised diet and exercise plans do not lead to sufficient weight reduction.
Our key strength lies in minimal access (laparoscopic) surgical approaches. These advanced operations are carried out through tiny incisions using specialized scopes and instruments. They result in lesser pain, shorter hospital stays, reduced scarring, and quicker healing.
We employ advanced imaging and surgical tools like:
At MASSH PROLIFE Ludhiana, we utilize advanced laparoscopic methods that provide precise visualization, aiding in highly delicate procedures. This technique offers several clinical advantages:

This technique removes 75–80% of the stomach using advanced imaging for precision. It creates a narrow stomach “sleeve” that restricts food intake. Patients benefit from shorter recovery, less discomfort, and high accuracy.
Note: Recommended for BMI 32–40 & patients willing to commit to lifestyle changes.
A surgical approach using advanced laparoscopy to create a small gastric pouch and bypass part of the intestine. The result is reduced calorie absorption and improved metabolism.
Note: Ideal for BMI 40–50 patients.
SADI-S merges a sleeve gastrectomy with a single-loop intestinal bypass. It reduces both food intake and nutrient absorption, effectively controlling weight and improving Type 2 Diabetes.
This dual-phase procedure combines gastric reduction and bypass of a large portion of the intestine. Though it has the highest rate of diabetes remission, it needs strict lifelong supplements due to absorption limits.
A less complex surgery forming a small pouch and connecting it directly to the small bowel. It is quick, effective, and reduces the need for long surgeries. Vitamin supplementation is required long-term.
Note: Best suited for BMI >50 cases.
Remember Note: Bariatric Treatments - Urological problems can arise in individuals of any age or gender and are often linked to weight. Common related issues include incontinence, kidney dysfunction, or hormonal imbalances.
