These personalised treatment programmes are tailored to each individual and place Bumrungrad among the world’s early pioneers in integrated weight management, combining Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) — an innovative minimally invasive gastric suturing technique — with pharmacological therapy. The hospital emphasises that effective prevention of obesity-related diseases requires safe, medically supervised weight control, alongside sustainable lifestyle modifications encompassing nutrition, physical activity, medication and advanced medical interventions.
