Obesity, Defined
Locate your height and weight below, to find your Body Mass Index (BMI)
Class I (MODERATE OBESITY): BMI between 30–34.9
Class II (SEVERE OBESITY): BMI between 35–39.9
Class III (MORBID OBESITY): BMI is 40 or higher
If you fall in the Orange or Red zone, you can qualify for weight loss surgery. Asians can qualify starting at BMI 27.
It's important to note that while BMI is widely used as a tool to categorize weight status and associated health risks, it has limitations. It does not directly assess body fat or its distribution, which can vary significantly due to factors like muscle mass, bone density, overall body composition & sex differences. Therefore, at Mehta Bariatric Center, we use additional assessments to fully understand an individual's health status and risks related to obesity.

Significant Risks of Untreated Obesity
Obesity is a complex condition with wide-ranging impacts on physical, psychological, and social well-being. It increases the risk of numerous health conditions, affecting not only the individual but also their family and society at large. Here's an overview of the risks associated with obesity and its broader impacts:
Cardiovascular Diseases: Including heart disease, hypertension, and stroke due to increased cholesterol levels, high blood pressure, and inflammation.
Type 2 Diabetes: Obesity is a major risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes due to insulin resistance.
Certain Cancers: Such as breast, colon, endometrial, kidney, and pancreatic cancer.
Certain Cancers: Including liver disease, gallbladder disease, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Respiratory Problems: Such as sleep apnea, asthma, and obesity hypoventilation syndrome.
Joint and Musculoskeletal Problems: Increased risk of osteoarthritis and gout due to the added stress on joints and bones.
Reproductive Issues: Including infertility, irregular menstrual cycles, and complications during pregnancy and childbirth.
Metabolic Syndrome: A cluster of conditions including high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal cholesterol levels, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
Psychological Conditions: Increased risk of depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders.
Economic Burden: Higher medical expenses due to chronic health conditions and potential loss of income due to disability or discrimination.
Caregiving Burden: Families may face physical, emotional, and financial stress due to caregiving responsibilities for members with obesity-related health conditions.
Social Stigma: Both the individual and their family may experience social stigma and discrimination, affecting mental health and social relationships.
Economic Impact: Increased healthcare costs for families and higher costs for society due to increased demand for medical services, loss of productivity, and disability payments.
Lifestyle and Environment: Obesity can influence family lifestyle choices and behaviors, potentially perpetuating a cycle of obesity within the family.
Prevention and Management:
Preventing and managing obesity requires a multifaceted approach, including lifestyle changes (diet and physical activity), medical interventions, psychological support, and, in some cases, surgical options like bariatric surgery. Public health initiatives that promote healthy eating, regular physical activity, and access to healthcare can also play a crucial role in addressing the obesity epidemic. Addressing obesity effectively involves not only treating the individual but also implementing supportive measures for families and making broader societal changes to create environments that support healthy lifestyles and reduce the stigma associated with obesity.
What Exactly is Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery stands as a beacon of hope for individuals who have battled severe obesity and the health issues it spawns. By surgically altering the digestive system, it offers a powerful method for significant weight loss. This section elucidates the essence of bariatric surgery, its historical evolution, and how it has become a sophisticated, safe, and effective tool in the fight against obesity.
The origins of bariatric surgery can be traced back to the 1950s and 1960s, when the first procedures were developed to treat severe obesity. Over the decades, new procedures have been added and older ones refined. Some procedures have disappeared over time, and others have soared in popularity. The evolution of bariatric surgery is a testament to the medical community's commitment to finding effective treatments for obesity. As we continue to advance, the focus remains on enhancing safety, improving outcomes, and ensuring that patients lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Types of Surgery
Gastric Sleeve
Over the past ten years, the Gastric Sleeve procedure has risen to become the most favored method for weight loss. This technique is carried out laparoscopically, involving small incisions in the skin and the use of a camera for guidance. During the surgery, a part of the stomach is surgically removed, resulting in a newly shaped stomach about the size and shape of a banana. This reduction in stomach size limits the quantity of food needed to achieve satiety. Furthermore, we target the section of the stomach responsible for producing Ghrelin, the hunger hormone. With the reduction of Ghrelin, patients typically experience a decrease in hunger sensations. Consequently, a significant reduction in calorie intake leads to substantial weight loss.
Patients have expressed high levels of satisfaction with the Gastric Sleeve procedure. They find that their reduced-size stomach still functions quite normally, allowing them to enjoy their favorite foods and dine at their preferred restaurants, but with a considerably smaller capacity. Unlike other procedures that reroute the intestines, the Gastric Sleeve has minimal impact on the absorption of nutrients, making it an effective and preferable option. When performed on suitable candidates, this operation can yield remarkable outcomes.
Gastric Sleeve
The Gastric Sleeve has become the most popular weight loss procedure over the last decade.
It is performed laparoscopically, using tiny skin incisions & a portion of the stomach is removed, leaving behind a smaller stomach about the size of a banana. This smaller stomach means you eat a smaller amount of food to feel full. Additionally, the part of the stomach that produces the hunger hormone Ghrelin is removed. This hormone plays a role in causing the feeling of hunger. After the Sleeve, as levels of Ghrelin decrease, and feeling of hunger decreases. Significantly less calories consumed leads to massive weight loss.
We find that patients are extremely satisfied with this procedure. They go about their daily lives with a stomach that still feels pretty normal, although significantly smaller. They still enjoy their favorite foods, and go to their favorite restaurants. Since their is no re-routing of intestines, there is minimal malabsorption of nutrients. It's a great operation, and when performed on the right patients, and can give fantastic results.
Gastric Bypass
Gastric Bypass is a procedure where a portion of the stomach is sectioned off, creating a small stomach pouch about the size of an egg. This stomach pouch is directly attached to your intestine so food bypasses the larger stomach. This small stomach pouch causes the feeling of fullness after just a few bites of food, and eating a lot less is where a majority of your weight loss comes from. Additionally, 3-5 feet of small intestine is bypassed, which helps with greater weight loss.
This procedure is performed laparoscopically using tiny skin incisions in the abdomen. This offers smaller scars and a quicker recovery time. This procedure is fully reversible, if needed. There are some differences between the Sleeve and the Bypass. This works better for treatment of acid reflux (GERD), delivers more weight loss, and patients have a higher long term success compared to the gastric sleeve or the gastric-band.

Lap-band
Lap-Band
The lap-band technique involves the placement of a silicone ring around the upper section of the stomach, forming a small pouch. This pouch limits the quantity of food that can be consumed at once and delays the transfer of food to the lower stomach area. As a result, individuals experience a sense of satiety from smaller food portions, which can contribute to a decrease in calorie consumption and subsequent weight reduction over time.
Performed through a laparoscopic approach, the lap-band procedure is minimally invasive, requiring only tiny incisions in the abdomen. The band is designed to be adjustable, allowing for quick tightening or loosening during an office visit by adding or removing saline from it using a needle. This adjustment capability ensures individuals can consume the appropriate amount of food for satisfaction and optimal weight management. The procedure is also reversible, with the option to remove the band if desired, though most patients choose to keep it in place.
Revision Surgery
For those who find themselves in the disheartening position of not achieving their desired weight loss or experiencing weight regain, the struggle is real, and often, their pleas for assistance go unheard. Too frequently, they are directed to nutritionists or left to navigate their weight loss journey alone, only to discover that conventional methods yield fleeting results at best. This unfortunate narrative echoes in our consultations with patients who turn to us in search of genuine help. Dr. Mehta offers hope with over two decades of expertise in revision surgeries, refining techniques to minimize invasiveness and maximize effectiveness. Among the common issues encountered, many individuals present with an enlarged stomach pouch following gastric bypass or sleeve procedures. While a multitude of treatments exist, not all deliver the desired outcomes. Dr. Mehta has 2 decades of experience in diagnosing and fixing all types of surgeries.

Why Have Weight Loss Surgery?
It's a Proven Most Effective Long Term Treatment for Obesity.
Surgery has a much higher chance of success than diets and lifestyle change. The biggest reason is that the size of the stomach is restricted, so people feel full with les food. This is not the case with diet modifications, as one still needs to eat larger quantities to feel satisfied. This is the greatest reason that diets fail long term.
Improved Health Conditions: Weight loss surgery can lead to the improvement or resolution of various obesity-related health conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obstructive sleep apnea, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and heart disease. In most cases, patients may be able to reduce or eliminate the need for medications to treat these conditions.
Enhanced Quality of Life: Many individuals experience significant improvements in quality of life, including increased mobility, higher self-esteem, and a more active social life. These changes can lead to enhanced overall well-being and mental health.
Longevity: Studies have shown that overweight people can have a 10 year shorter life expectancy than a normal weight person. The decrease in risk factors for diseases such as heart disease and cancer can contribute to a longer life expectancy.
Relief from Joint Pain: Excess weight puts additional pressure on weight-bearing joints, leading to pain and degeneration. Weight loss surgery can alleviate this pressure, reducing pain and improving mobility and the overall condition of joints.
Improved Fertility: Obesity is linked with fertility issues, and losing weight can help regulate menstrual cycles and improve the likelihood of conception.
Conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), urinary incontinence, and certain respiratory disorders can also see improvement after weight loss surgery due to the decrease in abdominal pressure and overall improvement in health.
Psychological Benefits: Improvements in mood, self-esteem, and body image, contributing to a decrease in symptoms of depression and anxiety in some individuals.
Economic Benefits: Individuals may experience reduced medical expenses and less time off work due to illness, contributing to long-term economic benefits.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age. It is characterized by the presence of multiple small cysts on the ovaries, irregular periods, and high levels of male hormones (androgens). Obesity is strongly associated with PCOS, and research has shown that up to 80% of women with PCOS are overweight or obese.
Migraines: Obesity has been found to be linked to migraines, a common and disabling neurological condition that affects many people worldwide.
Fibromyalgia: is a chronic pain condition that affects millions of people worldwide. The exact causes of fibromyalgia are not well understood, but research has suggested that obesity may be a risk factor for the development of fibromyalgia.
It's important to note that while weight loss surgery provides numerous benefits, at Mehta Bariatric Center, we believe a lifelong commitment to lifestyle changes, including diet and exercise, is optimal to maintain the weight loss and health benefits.

Patients speaking about their weight loss journey.
After visiting several doctors, I chose Dr. Mehta. He is an extremely talented surgeon with a sterling record and reputation. Also, Mehta Bariatric Center has superior resources for every step of the process. I am completely satisfied with the care I have received from Dr. Mehta and his staff and would highly recommend them to all.
-Patricia W.
Dr. Mehta is the BEST doctor I ever had. What doctor closes down an upscale restaurant hires a band with an open bar and gives away gifts to his patients. NONE. Every time I hear Christina Aguilera “You are beautiful, no matter what they say” I cry. That was the theme of our Christmas party in 2003. Before choosing Dr. Mehta I visited at least eight other surgeons. I had no confidents in doctors or hospitals after my mom died after a “routine” surgery in Sept 2000. My health was failing and I was weighing 487 lbs with a bad back. Exactly one year later Sept 24, 2004, I have already lost 191 lbs and still losing. Most bariatric centers put you on a waiting list for at least one year – within two weeks of my initial consultation I was operated on. Which left me no time to back out. Dr. Mehta’s approach in explaining the operation by via film questions and answers, perks and risks, in a group setting allowed my husband and myself fully understand everything we needed to know before, during and after surgery. Even a year later he is always available even on weekends and weird hours. You’ll have no problem reaching him. God gifted Dr. Mehta with the gifts of working miracles, and now everywhere I go I hear “you are beautiful”.
-Valerie G.
"I was made aware of Dr. Mehta’s program through an associate at work. I was shocked at the reaction that Dr. Mehta received from his patients during the seminar. He answered all of my questions straight to the point. My total experience with the program was fantastic!! Dr. Mehta has given me my life back! I am able to live and work like I did when I was young! I feel I was given a chance to start over and I owe it to Dr. Mehta. My surgery was flawless. I felt great after. Recovery was quick and now I am on my way to new goals. Thank you so much for the new LIFE!!"
-GARY G.
I thank God for directing me to Dr. Mehta. Because of the WLS I can experience life with children and finally live.
-Brad T.
Dr. Mehta did a great job at making my life better along with making me a lot healthier. The operation was a success and I lost 180 lbs. The follow up visits to his office is a pleasure because of his office staff and Dr. Mehta himself. The Doc wants to make sure I stay healthy and does everything to make sure I stay that way.
-Hugh W.
"I suffered from diabetes, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, sleep apnea, lack of energy, swollen feet and grumpiness. Best of all I no longer use medicines & no longer suffer from any of the other medical issues. Even my grumpiness has gone away. My PCP was amazed and very impressed. I wish that there was a way to thank Dr. Mehta for what he has done. If I could do it all over again, I would in heart beat with Dr. Mehta."
- Miguel C.
I was impressed with Dr. Mehta and his staff the minute I met with them. He made me feel like he cared about my obesity and assured me that he could help. He was not judgmental and did not look down at me because of my size.
- Eddie M.
Great! The doctor is very caring and is very experience at what he does. His staff is very helpful before and after surgery. This decision to have the surgery was the right one. I feel great!!
- Luis M.
There is no talk of “hopelessness” at the MBC. In fact, Dr. Mehta and his team (the therapist Dr. Mehta recommends for dealing with obesity related issues) all work tirelessly to get their patients to where they need to be. I could not have done it without them!! - Heidi B.
I thank God for directing me to Dr. Mehta. Because of the WLS I can experience life with children and finally live.
My first impression of Dr. Vishal Mehta was that he was a caring, intelligent, honest and thorough surgeon. His office staff is wonderful. Overall, I would rate him as one of the best — he is extremely competent and has an awesome bedside manner, both important qualities I was looking for. After much research, I think I made the best decision and would recommend him to anyone!

Safety
Weight Loss Surgeries have come a long way, and have become as safe as many routine surgeries. They're performed laparoscopically in a minimally invasive manner. Dr. Mehta has successfully performed thousands of such surgeries over 2 decades. You get the benefit of a highly trained and vastly experienced surgeon who has performed thousands of laparoscopic weight loss surgeries. Like any surgery, weight loss surgeries have their unique potential issues and side effects. However, they have improved significantly over the 2 decades due to the high volume of such procedures being performed, surgeon & team experience, as well as improvements in surgical equipment / instrumentation. Nearly all his bariatric surgeries are performed laparoscopically using small cameras and instruments.
These procedures have become significantly safer over the years, leading the American society of Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) to lower their guidelines to who can qualify for surgery.

FAQS
WHICH PROCEDURE IS BEST FOR ME?
To help choose the right procedure, several factors are considered, including your age, BMI, health conditions, previous surgeries, lifestyle, weight loss goals, and the risks and benefits of each procedure. All the options are discussed with Dr. Mehta during the consultation.
HOW MUCH TIME OFF IS NEEDED?For the Lap-Band, people go home the same day, as for the Gastric Sleeve and Bypass, nearly all of our patients go home after 1 overnight stay at the hospital. For the lap-band, most people can return to work in 3 days. For a Gastric sleeve or gastric bypass, at least 1 week off minimum is needed before returning to office type work.
HOW SOON CAN I HAVE SURGERY?The process starts with an initial consult with Dr. Mehta, in person or virtual. We then initiate the surgery approval process with your health insurance. Our office does the insurance work, and has a very high approval rate. Once approved by insurance, you can have surgery within 2 weeks. Self-pay patients can be placed on fast-track, and can often surgery in as little as 10 days.
HOW MUCH WEIGHT WILL I LOSE?Overall weight loss depends on many factors. Since you are unique, and so is your weight loss journey, diet & lifestyle, how much weight you will lose can only be estimated after putting your entire picture together regarding your age, height, weight, medical illnesses, and lifestyle. Smaller patients can lose around 50 lbs. but larger ones can lose up to 180 lbs. or more. It depends on which procedure we are discussing. Results vary based on many factors such as age, sex, and conforming with proper post-op nutrition guidelines.
Alternative Options
What about Gastric Balloons?
Inserting a balloon or balloons in the stomach and later removing them months later cannot and does not have any long lasting weight loss. Patients may lose 10% of their body weight which almost always is regained once the balloons are removed. Secondly, balloons are expensive and not covered by insurance. There are 1 to 2 endoscopic procedures involved to insert and later remove the balloons.
Endoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (ESG)?
ESG is a minimally invasive procedure performed using an endoscope, a flexible tube with a camera and an endoscopic suturing device attached, which is inserted through the mouth and into the stomach. The stomach's size is reduced by creating a series of sutures to cinch in large portions of the stomach, without removing any stomach tissue. The stomach capacity decreases and patients eat less and lose weight. The main problems with this procedure is that the sutures are usually grabbing the inner lining of the stomach, thus, many of the sutures do not hold in place long term. Secondly, the stomach isn't nearly as small as would be with a gastric sleeve. thus the weight loss is about 10% of your body weight compared to 70% for the Gastric Sleeve, and even more for a Gastric bypass.
