"Before I had this surgery I didn’t leave my home for years other than to work a night shift job I had taken as to not have to meet new people or hear people talk about my weight. I started at almost 300 pounds and today I am 140 and holding strong now for about a year. I credit him and myself for my new life. I was given a second chance and would never ever look back. Thank you Dr. Gmora for performing these life altering surgeries to us who were unable to get here on our own."

How quickly can I have the surgery performed?

It typically takes 2-4 weeks from the time of your first consultation. It is critical that we properly prepare you prior to surgery. This means having a thorough medical assessment to make sure you are medically fit for surgery. It also means teaching you what to expect after surgery and how to manage your new stomach once surgery is completed so that your weight loss results are extraordinary and permanent.

Is the procedure covered by my provincial health insurance?

The Sleeve Clinic is a private, boutique bariatric surgery clinic serving Calgary AB specializing exclusively in the gastric sleeve surgical procedure.  It is not covered by provincial health care plans, but you may be able to get some coverage from private health insurance.
