Johns Hopkins experts explain the endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty procedure, recovery expectations, and weight loss outcomes.

Johns Hopkins experts in endobariatric surgery and obesity medicine — Geri Keane, Ph.D., M.B.B.S., M.Sc., Jyotsna Ghosh, M.D., and nurse practitioner Kristen Koller — answer commonly asked questions about endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG). They describe the procedure, recovery time and how much weight patients can expect to lose. They also explain how the Johns Hopkins Healthful Eating, Activity and Weight Program works with patients to help them sustain their weight loss. #endoscopicsleevegastroplasty #johnshopkins What is endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG)? How long will my recovery take? Who is a good candidate for ESG? How much weight can I expect to lose after an ESG procedure? Diets and weight loss programs have not worked for me in the past. What will be different this time? Will I need weight loss medications? Will insurance pay for my procedure?
