Surgical Procedures
State-of-the-art robotic and laparoscopic technology at the service of your health. Precise diagnostics and surgeries designed for accelerated recovery and exceptional outcomes.
Bariatric & Metabolic Surgery
Definitive, personalized solutions for the treatment of overweight, obesity, and remission of related metabolic diseases.
Gastric Bypass
Internationally regarded as the gold standard in bariatric surgery. This procedure restricts food capacity and reduces calorie absorption by dividing the stomach into a small upper pouch and reconnecting it with millimetric precision to the small intestine.
Key Benefits:
- Sustainable weight loss of 70% to 80% of excess body weight.
- Very high remission and control rates for Type 2 Diabetes and Hypertension.
- Definitive relief and elimination of chronic gastroesophageal reflux.
Gastric Sleeve
The most preferred restrictive procedure worldwide. It involves the safe removal of 80% of the stomach's greater curvature through millimetric incisions, creating a narrow tube-shaped reservoir. It significantly reduces gastric capacity and suppresses ghrelin (the hunger hormone).
Key Benefits:
- Rapid, progressive, and highly effective weight loss.
- Does not alter intestinal anatomy, reducing the risk of nutritional deficiencies.
- Excellent modulation of early satiety and appetite control.
Revision / Conversion Surgery
Specially designed for patients who have experienced weight regain or complications from a prior bariatric surgery (such as severe acid reflux after a gastric sleeve). Dr. Fernando González Zorrilla meticulously evaluates the anatomical status to transform or refine the previous surgery.
Key Benefits:
- Definitive solution for severe secondary gastroesophageal reflux.
- Safe metabolic reactivation to resume weight loss.
- Ultra-personalized approach guided by a certified specialist.
General & Minimally Invasive Surgery
Surgical procedures of the digestive tract and abdominal wall using millimetric incisions to ensure minimal pain and accelerated recovery.
Anti-Reflux Surgery (Nissen Fundoplication)
Chronic reflux and hiatal hernias silently damage the esophagus. Through laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication, the upper portion of the stomach is wrapped around the lower esophagus to restore the pressure valve and permanently halt acid return.
Key Benefits:
- Definitive elimination of heartburn, acidity, and nighttime regurgitation.
- Allows complete discontinuation of chronic medications.
- Highly effective outpatient surgery with rapid recovery.
Gallbladder Surgery (Cholecystectomy)
The formation of gallstones obstructs the gallbladder ducts, causing painful crises or inflammation. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy safely removes the diseased gallbladder through small minimally invasive access points, preventing emergency situations.
Key Benefits:
- Definitive cessation of severe pain and biliary colic after meals.
- Prevention of life-threatening complications (pancreatitis or peritonitis).
- Outpatient procedure with cosmetic scarring and rapid healing.
Hernia Repair (Hernioplasty)
Inguinal, umbilical, or incisional hernias arise from openings or muscular weaknesses. Laparoscopic hernioplasty repositions the tissue to its ideal anatomical position and places a high-strength synthetic mesh to seal the weakness, eliminating the risk of strangulation.
Key Benefits:
- Definitive structural closure reinforced with biocompatible mesh.
- Prevents intestinal strangulation emergencies.
- Very comfortable recovery thanks to minimally invasive technique.
Appendix Surgery (Appendectomy)
Acute appendicitis is a serious medical emergency. Dr. Fernando González Zorrilla swiftly and safely removes the inflamed appendix through a modern laparoscopic approach, optimizing abdominal cavity hygiene and minimizing hospital stay duration.
Key Benefits:
- Rapid emergency intervention with cutting-edge technology.
- Lower postoperative infection rate compared to open surgery.
- Minimal pain and barely noticeable scars.
Thyroid Surgery (Thyroidectomy)
A high-precision intervention designed to treat nodules, goiters, or tumorous conditions of the thyroid gland. Using advanced techniques, the affected tissue is partially or fully removed, prioritizing maximum preservation of vital neck structures.
Key Benefits:
- Maximum safety: Advanced monitoring to protect vocal cords and parathyroid glands.
- Rapid recovery: Short hospital stay and prompt return to your routine.
- Cosmetic scarring: Minimal incisions with nearly imperceptible plastic closures.
