Thanks to advancements in endoscopic technology, you now have several non-surgical options for weight loss. Doctors in the Sutter Health network offer these newer endoscopic weight loss procedures as alternatives to traditional weight loss surgery.
Endoscopic procedures pass a flexible tube with a camera and light through the mouth and down the esophagus to examine your stomach and intestinal tract. You’ll receive sedation during the procedure and typically go home the same day.
