Bariatric Workshop

At Al Madina Women’s Hospital, we believe that progress and continuous education are the keys to improving health ❤. Since our goal is always to develop our skills and expand our knowledge to provide the highest standards of care to our patients, we hosted a specialized workshop on bariatric surgeries under the supervision of Dr. Mohamed Hany Ashour at the IFSO-accredited Bariatric Surgery Center.

We were honored to welcome Dr. Amer Al-Derazi, Consultant in General Bariatric Surgery and CEO of Middle East Hospital; Dr. Atyab Bukhalaf from Bahrain; and Dr. Ahmed Qirat, Consultant in Bariatric Surgery at SGH Specialist Hospital in Dammam.

We gathered at Al Madina Women’s Hospital in Alexandria to exchange expertise on ring-enhanced bariatric surgeries. It was a rich and fruitful experience during which we performed three advanced operations, including ring-enhanced sleeve gastrectomy, converting two unsuccessful sleeve gastrectomies into ring-enhanced gastric bypasses, and a revisional ring-enhanced sleeve gastrectomy.

Dr. Al-Derazi’s insights added significant value, helping deepen our understanding of the benefits and techniques of using rings in surgery.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to our partners for the success of this event: Bariatric Solutions, Victor Medical, and Total Solutions for their generous support and outstanding contributions. Thanks to these partnerships, we can advance bariatric surgery and provide the best healthcare for our patients.
