Services
Treatments Offered
Dr. Saeed Hassan offers a comprehensive range of medically supervised weight loss treatments, including bariatric surgery (gastric sleeve and gastric bypass), endoscopic gastric balloon procedures, and the non-surgical Allurion swallowable balloon. Each treatment is delivered within a structured clinical pathway, ensuring patients receive personalised care, appropriate treatment selection, and ongoing medical support for safe, long-term weight loss outcomes.
Gastric Bypass
A roux-en-y gastric bypass surgery creates a new structure out of the existing stomach to create a small pouch. It bypasses a portion of the stomach to reduce the amount of food you can eat at once to help you lose weight.
Gastric Sleeve
Typically performed as a laparoscopic surgery, a gastric sleeve (sleeve gastrectomy) removes around 80% of the stomach to create a tube or sleeve-like structure in order to reduce the amount you can eat and thus lose weight.
Mini Gastric Bypass
A mini gastric bypass operation reduces the size of the available stomach without removing anything. It relies on a series of alterations to the stomach that can be likened to ‘plumbing.’ There is a reduced risk for a hernia and it results in a faster recovery.
Weight Loss Programme
Our programme features the latest generation of GLP-1 therapies, a non-surgical approach that helps regulate appetite, reduce cravings, and support steady fat loss. Delivered under specialist supervision in the UAE, these treatments are designed for safe and lasting results
Endoscopic Gastric Balloon
The endoscopic gastric balloon is a clinically proven, non-surgical weight loss treatment placed in the stomach using a short endoscopic procedure under light sedation.
The balloon helps reduce hunger and supports portion control, allowing patients to make long-term changes to their diet and lifestyle as part of a medically supervised programme.
Allurion Smart Capsule
The Allurion Smart Capsule is a non-surgical gastric balloon designed to support weight loss without the need for endoscopy or anaesthesia during placement.
Swallowed in capsule form, the balloon is filled in the stomach to help reduce hunger and support portion control as part of a medically supervised programme.
