Sophia R.
"Before I came to LivLife Hospital, I struggled with my weight for years. After undergoing gastric sleeve surgery, I lost over 80 pounds in less than a year! The team at LivLife supported me through every step of the process, from my initial consultation to post-operative care. Now, I can play with my kids without feeling out of breath. This journey has transformed my life, and I couldn't be more grateful!"
David M.
"I had a long history of weight-related health issues, including diabetes and high blood pressure. After extensive research, I decided on a duodenal switch procedure at LivLife Hospital. The results have been incredible—I've lost 120 pounds and am off all my medications! The staff was incredibly supportive, providing a holistic approach that included nutrition and lifestyle counseling. I feel healthier and more energetic than ever!"
Emily T.
"Deciding to have weight loss surgery was one of the best decisions I've ever made. The team at LivLife Hospital in Hyderabad made me feel comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. I opted for the gastric bypass, and I've lost 90 pounds so far. The psychological support was invaluable, helping me change my relationship with food. I now enjoy activities I never thought I could, like hiking and dancing!"
John L.
"My weight had held me back for so long, affecting my confidence and quality of life. After attending a seminar at LivLife Hospital, I chose to have an endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty. In just a few months, I've lost over 70 pounds and feel fantastic. The personalized care and attention from the surgeons and staff made all the difference. I now have a renewed sense of purpose!"

"I was at my lowest point before I found LivLife Hospital. After my sleeve gastrectomy, I lost over 50% of my body weight in less than a year! The hospital staff not only helped me with surgery but also provided ongoing support with nutrition and exercise. I now have the energy to engage with my family and live my life fully. This journey is about so much more than just weight loss; it’s about reclaiming my life!"
