Robotic Sleeve Gastrectomy

The most precise approach to sleeve gastrectomy using the Da Vinci robotic system.

About This Procedure

Robotic sleeve gastrectomy removes ~85% of the stomach using the Da Vinci system, reshaping it into a narrow tube. Dr. Wadhawan’s sub-millimeter precision ensures optimal staple line placement, reducing complications and maximizing weight loss outcomes.

Hospital stay: 24–48 hours • 70% excess weight loss at 12 months
