New Alternatives To Surgery For Weight Loss | Endoscopic Procedures | Adarsh M. Thaker, MD | UCLA

Adarsh M. Thaker, UCLA interventional endoscopist, reviews the full spectrum of current weight loss options, including bariatric endoscopy. This refers to newer, minimally invasive endoscopic treatments which do not require surgery, including endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG) and weight loss balloons. Finally, for patients who have re-gained weight after a prior bariatric surgery, he also discusses revision procedures, including the transoral outlet reduction (TORe) procedure.
