Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) is a minimally invasive, incision-free weight loss procedure offered at Integrated Gastroenterology Consultants for patients seeking an effective alternative to traditional bariatric surgery as part of a comprehensive, physician-led weight management program. ESG is performed endoscopically using advanced suturing techniques to reduce the stomach’s volume, promoting earlier satiety and decreased caloric intake.

ESG is typically completed in under 90 minutes with same-day discharge and a short recovery period. Because ESG avoids surgical resection, it offers a favorable safety profile compared to bariatric surgery while still achieving meaningful weight loss.

Clinical studies show patients can achieve approximately 15–20% total body weight loss at 12–24 months, particularly when combined with structured lifestyle support and ongoing medical care. ESG has also been associated with improvements in obesity-related conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and fatty liver disease.

Ideal candidates generally include individuals with a BMI ≥30 who have not achieved sustained weight loss through diet and exercise alone. Our team develops personalized care plans that incorporate nutrition counseling and medical therapy when appropriate to support long-term success.

If you’re looking for a safe, effective, and incision-free approach to weight loss, ESG at Integrated Gastroenterology Consultants offers a modern, evidence-based option tailored to your health goals.
