The Obesity & Weight Loss Management Department at MASSH addresses the multifaceted challenges of obesity through a comprehensive combination of surgical and non-surgical interventions, including bariatric surgeries and non-invasive options like intragastric ballooning. These treatments are designed to reduce stomach capacity, regulate hunger hormones, and promote sustainable lifestyle changes that support long-term weight loss and metabolic health.
At the core of our approach is the 6-month S.M.A.R.T Weight Loss Protocol—a structured, multidisciplinary program that guides patients through every stage of their weight loss journey. This protocol ensures safe, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound progress across pre-procedure evaluation, intervention (surgical or non-surgical), and post-procedure lifestyle support. By combining clinical precision with personalized care, we help patients not only lose weight but also sustain healthier living for the long term.
