Bariatric Surgery: A New Chapter in Health
Obesity isn’t just a matter of appearance—it’s a complex, chronic health condition that affects every major system in the body. It increases the risk of:
At Slim Surgical, we specialize in robotic-assisted bariatric surgery that targets the root causes of obesity—helping patients safely lose excess weight, reduce medication dependence, and enjoy a more active, fulfilling life.
What Is Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery refers to a group of procedures designed to assist with weight loss by altering the digestive system. These procedures help by:
Reducing the size of the stomach, so you feel full faster
Altering hormone levels, especially ghrelin, which affects hunger
Limiting calorie absorption, depending on the surgery type
Improving insulin sensitivity, which is crucial for patients with diabetes
At Slim Surgical, we focus on gastric sleeve surgery—a safe, effective, and life-changing procedure that we perform using the latest in robotic technology.

Gastric Sleeve Surgery: Precision Weight Loss, Powered by Robotics
Also known as sleeve gastrectomy, gastric sleeve surgery involves removing approximately 80% of the stomach, leaving a smaller, banana-shaped “sleeve.” This significantly reduces the amount of food you can consume and decreases hunger by limiting hormone production in the removed portion of the stomach.
Benefits of Gastric Sleeve Surgery
Sustainable Weight Loss
Patients typically lose 60–70% of their excess weight within the first 12–18 months after surgery.
Reduced Hunger and Cravings
Hormonal changes post-surgery naturally decrease appetite, making lifestyle changes easier to maintain.
Improved or Resolved Comorbidities
Many patients see remission of Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea.
Fewer Surgical Complications
Compared to gastric bypass, the sleeve offers a simpler anatomical alteration with fewer risks of malabsorption or nutritional deficiencies.
Robotic-Assisted Sleeve Gastrectomy
At Slim Surgical, gastric sleeve procedures are performed with robotic-assisted technology, offering unmatched precision and safety. Here’s why this matters:
Smaller incisions mean less tissue damage and minimal scarring
Improved dexterity for the surgeon results in better surgical outcomes
Faster recovery times, often allowing patients to go home the same day or within 24 hours
Lower risk of infection and complications

Hernia Surgery: Restore Comfort, Prevent Complications
Hernias are more common than most people realize—and they can become more serious than they appear. A hernia occurs when an internal organ or tissue pushes through a weakened spot in the abdominal wall. If not treated promptly, hernias can lead to:
Chronic pain
Obstructed bowels
Tissue strangulation, which requires emergency surgery
Reduced physical function and difficulty exercising or lifting
Types of Hernias Treated at Slim Surgical
Ventral Hernias – Occur along the abdominal wall, often at weak spots or old incision sites
Umbilical Hernias – Form near the navel, common in both adults and children
Incisional Hernias – Develop at the site of previous surgeries due to weakened tissue
Dr. Angela Kaza’s Minimally Invasive Approach
Dr. Kaza performs laparoscopic and robotic-assisted hernia repairs, offering a significant advantage over traditional open surgery:
For larger or more complex hernias, she uses reinforcement mesh and tailored surgical planning to ensure durable, long-term results.
