The Duodenal Switch (DS) is one of the most effective bariatric surgeries available for long-term weight loss, particularly for individuals with severe obesity. At Next Body Surgery, our expert bariatric surgeons offer this comprehensive procedure to help patients achieve substantial weight loss while improving or resolving obesity-related health conditions. The Duodenal Switch combines restrictive and malabsorptive techniques, making it a powerful tool for sustained weight management and a healthier lifestyle.
Duodenal Switch surgery is a two-part procedure. First, a sleeve gastrectomy is performed, removing a large portion of the stomach to limit food intake. Second, the small intestine is rerouted to reduce the absorption of calories and nutrients. This dual approach not only limits the amount of food you can eat but also reduces the calories your body absorbs, leading to significant weight loss and improved health outcomes.
Candidates for DS typically have a BMI of 40 or higher, or a BMI of 35 or higher with obesity-related health conditions. A consultation with our bariatric surgeon will determine if this procedure is suitable for you.
The procedure generally takes about 3-4 hours, depending on the patient’s unique needs and the complexity of the case.
Most patients recover within 4-6 weeks, though recovery times can vary. Patients should follow post-operative instructions carefully to ensure optimal healing.
As with any surgery, DS carries potential risks, such as infection, leakage, or nutritional deficiencies. Our experienced team takes every precaution to minimize these risks and ensure a successful outcome.
Yes, due to the malabsorptive component of the surgery, lifelong vitamin and mineral supplementation is necessary to avoid deficiencies and maintain overall health.
