Gastric Sleeve: An Investment in Yourself

Initially, when patients inquire about the Gastric Sleeve surgery they often have sticker shock as it is a large upfront cost to take control of their health. Patients are often not aware of the amount of money they spend yearly on fad diets, vitamins, supplement, diet programs, trainers, coaches, and clothing. This does not include the lost productive time and work from illnesses related to excess weight.

If one was to add the yearly costs of weight loss programs they will likely exceed the cost of the gastric sleeve in a few years. In addition, we know only 5% of patients will be able to keep off the weight long-term with lifestyle modifications. Sadly, the spend and regain cycle continues.

When taking into account all of the costs with diet and exercise choosing the gastric sleeve becomes very compelling. Firstly, it works! The gastric sleeve has been shown to lead to effective long term weight loss with significant resolution in high blood pressure, sleep apnea, diabetes to name a few benefits. Simply put the Gastric Sleeve is an investment in yourself and will pay dividends through better health, longevity, happiness and productivity. Please let us know if you would like to discuss the Gastric Sleeve surgery with one of our experts and we would be happy to book you a free consultation.
