Our Conditions We Treat

At the Avenues Specialty Clinic, we focus on treating some of the most common metabolic conditions, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome, through extensive medically supervised weight loss management and advanced surgical techniques.

Obesity: Our comprehensive program offers evidence-based approaches to help patients achieve significant weight loss. Medically supervised weight loss management provides personalized dietary and lifestyle guidance, while surgical options, such as minimally invasive bariatric procedures, deliver sustainable results by reducing excess weight and improving overall health.

Type 2 Diabetes: Both non-surgical and surgical approaches can be transformative for managing type 2 diabetes. Medically supervised programs focus on weight reduction, dietary adjustments, and medication optimization to help control blood sugar levels. Bariatric surgery, including gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy, has been shown to improve or even resolve diabetes in many cases by enhancing insulin sensitivity and glycemic control.

Metabolic Syndrome: This cluster of conditions—including high blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal cholesterol levels—can often be effectively addressed through tailored weight loss strategies. Our multidisciplinary approach combines medical management with surgical interventions to reduce risk factors and promote long-term health improvements.

Both medically supervised weight loss management and surgical techniques offer distinct benefits that empower patients to reclaim their health and improve their quality of life. Whether through lifestyle modifications, non-invasive procedures, or advanced surgical solutions, we guide each patient toward achieving sustainable and life-changing outcomes.

Comprehensive Solutions for Metabolic Syndrome

At Avenues Specialty Clinic, we offer a wide array of services to help you address Metabolic Syndrome with tailored weight loss strategies. Our program is designed to provide both medical management and advanced surgical interventions, empowering you to succeed in your health journey and achieve sustainable outcomes.

  • Medically Supervised Weight Loss Management: Personalized dietary and lifestyle guidance to promote healthy weight loss with ongoing support.
  • Gastric Sleeve Surgery: A minimally invasive procedure that reduces stomach size to aid in significant and sustainable weight loss.
  • Gastric Bypass Surgery: An advanced surgical solution to improve weight loss and potentially resolve type 2 diabetes.
  • Adjustable Gastric Banding: A procedure that involves placing an adjustable band around the upper part of the stomach, creating a smaller pouch to limit food intake.
  • Biliopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch (BPD/DS): A complex surgery combining stomach reduction and rerouting of the intestines to decrease calorie absorption significantly.
  • SADiE (Single Anastomosis Duodenal-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy): A newer surgical technique that combines a sleeve gastrectomy with a simplified intestinal bypass to restrict food intake and reduce calorie absorption effectively.
  • Revision Surgeries for Bariatric Procedures: Revision surgeries are specialized interventions aimed at addressing complications or suboptimal outcomes from initial bariatric procedures. These surgeries are tailored to the individual needs of patients and can include adjustments, conversions, or completions of prior procedures.

Whether through lifestyle modifications, medically supervised programs, or advanced surgical solutions, Avenues Specialty Clinic is dedicated to helping you reclaim your health and improve your quality of life.
