Medical Weight Loss
While Dr. Isolina does not offer medical weight loss as it's own service, she does believe that this should be provided as usual care. Her primary care patients will be supported by a team of dietitians, medication management, access to weight loss programs at the Hopedale Wellness Center, and surgical options if medical management is not successful.
Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG)
You do not need to be a primary care patient of Dr. Isolina's to be considered for this intervention.
The newest incisionless nonsurgical weight loss procedure is performed with discharge home on the same day. Endoscopic procedures can offer similar benefits to surgery. This is typically recommended for patients with BMI 30-50 who are willing to commit to lifestyle changes to sustain weight loss. CLICK HERE to learn more.
Surgical Weight Loss
Dr. Isolina offers surgical weight loss options such as gastric sleeve, gastric bypass and duodenal switch. These procedures are not one size fits all - you will work together to determine which route is best for you to achieve continued and safe weight loss for years to come.
Endoscopic Weight Loss (ESG)
The OverStitch™ device allows the surgeon to sew the stomach without making incisions on the belly. This has revolutionized the available options for weight loss to minimize time off work, minimize cost, and maximize weight loss.
