Endoscopic Weight loss Treatments
Exclusive to Weight Doctors

Do you want long term weight loss?
Maintaining your weight loss success has never been so easy.

Until recently, medical interventions to permanently reduce stomach volume have been associated with high risks, serious side effects and severe limitations in overall quality of life. With the development of the pose® (Primary Obesity Surgery Endoluminal) procedure, however, this perception is a thing of the past. Pose® is a solution that aims to achieve a high degree of effectiveness while being a low-impact medical intervention. Pose® is a so-called minimally invasive non-surgical method and is the only solution that enables a permanent reduction of stomach volume.

The unique thing about pose® is that the procedure impacts two important areas of the stomach to achieve effective, sustained weight loss: namely at the stomach entrance, and at the stomach exit – for a faster, and longer lasting feeling of fullness.

Up until recently, the procedure, which is based on a highly specialized, single-use endoscope created by the US manufacturer USGI Medical Inc., has only been offered in Spain, Austria and the United Arab Emirates. The Weight Doctors team has been successfully treating patients with the pose® procedure since 2017 and has been able to help hundreds of happy patients achieve their ideal weight with this innovative and complication-free method.

The Weight Doctors SLEEVE® is the most convincing approach for permanent gastric reduction without surgery

The technologies used for the Weight Doctors SLEEVE® offer spectacular results, but must be applied cleanly and, above all, safely for our patients by an experienced specialist in visceral surgery. That’s why it’s particularly important at Weight Doctors that all our specialists are intensively trained in our treatment philosophy. Only in this way can we ensure, for example, that all our procedures within the Weight Doctors SLEEVE® build on each other and are applied modularly. This offers the advantage that we can readjust and better control the gastric reduction at a later time.

For all endoscopic technologies for gastric reduction based on the Weight Doctors SLEEVE®, a highly specialized endoscope for single use is employed. Using high-precision instruments, the stomach wall is then prepared. With the instruments of pose® 3.0 Double Helix, the Endo-Sleeve is precisely placed in folds in the stomach at the most important locations, row by row, using targeted anchor and thread technology, the so-called Snowshoe technique. With the nickel-free OverStich Next technology, the Endo-Sleeve is placed z-shaped lengthwise along the stomach from bottom to top using threads. The horizontal and vertical effect of all threads together leads to a permanent gastric reduction of up to 75%.

The Weight Doctors team has been treating patients extremely successfully since 2017. Today, the Weight Doctors Endo-Sleeve, a special type of endoscopic gastric reduction without real surgery, is created using the technology platforms pose® 3.0 Double Helix and the nickel-free OverStich Next technology.

Since 2021, Weight Doctors even offer bariatric surgical operations as part of their Weight Doctors BARIATRICS program and can thus lead patients to maximum weight loss success through surgical sleeve gastrectomy or gastric bypass. This makes Weight Doctors the only provider in all of Germany that can deliver the entire range of the best and most sustainable procedures for gentle and effective permanent gastric reduction.

Thanks to our innovative and complication-free treatment philosophy, we have already been able to help over 5,000 happy patients achieve their ideal weight with a Weight Doctors Endo-Sleeve.
