At Dexeus University Hospital, patients can receive Sleeve Gastrectomy, supported by sophisticated bariatric infrastructure and professional medical staff, including skilled doctors and surgeons. This JCI accredited hospital was founded in 1973 and is situated in Barcelona, Spain, with 200 beds.

The main objective of Sleeve Gastrectomy is helping obese patients to lose weight. In the course of the surgery, a large part of the stomach is surgically removed. This is done to reduce the amount of food the stomach can swallow. The method can also help reduce feelings of hunger. However, thorough pre-operative preparation is necessary to determine whether the patient is suitable for the operation. After the assessment, the patient must follow a specific diet plan in accordance with dietary and specialist recommendations.
