What Is Obesity & Metabolic Surgery?
Obesity that cannot be controlled despite diet, exercise, and medical treatment can lead to many serious health problems such as diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, joint disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. Bariatric surgery is an effective treatment option that supports weight loss, improves metabolism, and significantly enhances quality of life in suitable patients.
Metabolic surgery focuses particularly on the relationship between Type 2 diabetes and obesity, targeting hormonal regulation in addition to weight loss. Before deciding on surgery, a multidisciplinary evaluation involving specialists such as dietitians, endocrinologists, and cardiologists is essential.
