What Is SADI-S Surgery?

The SADI-S surgery (Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileostomy with Sleeve) is a modern, modified version of the traditional duodenal switch. It is a dual-action bariatric surgery that combines the restrictive benefits of a gastric sleeve with the metabolic power of an intestinal bypass.

SADI-S is highly effective for obesity treatment, often resulting in an average excess weight loss of 80% to 90% over two years. It also boasts incredible long-term remission rates for comorbidities, with Type 2 Diabetes resolution occurring in a high percentage of patients.

However, as a more complex procedure, it requires a balanced understanding of potential risks. Because SADI-S involves a degree of malabsorption, patients must be committed to lifelong vitamin supplementation to prevent nutritional deficiencies. Other risks can include bile reflux or changes in bowel habits. During your consultation, Dr. Beltre will discuss these factors to ensure your safety and success.

Who Is SADI-S Surgery Right For?

We provide specialized care for a diverse range of patients across the U.S. and Florida, ensuring that language is never a barrier to high-quality medical care. SADI-S is a serious commitment, and our weight loss surgeon in Orlando helps prequalify our clients through a deep look at their medical history and lifestyle.

Ideal candidates often include:

  • High BMI Thresholds: Individuals with “class III” obesity (BMI 50+) who need a more potent metabolic intervention.
  • Sleeve Revisions: Patients who have experienced weight regain or insufficient loss after a primary gastric sleeve.
  • Comorbidity Management: Those struggling with hard-to-control Type 2 Diabetes or severe hypertension.
  • Age and Health: Generally suitable for adults who are healthy enough for general anesthesia and committed to long-term follow-up.

Success with SADI bariatric surgery requires more than just the operation. It requires strict adherence to a high-protein post-op diet, regular exercise, and a rigorous regimen of vitamin and mineral supplements.

What Are the benefits of SADI-S Surgery?

Patients can experience a significant reduction in excess weight, leading to a healthier lifestyle. SADI-S can also lead to improvements in Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart health. 

Weight loss can improve mobility, energy levels, and overall well-being, enhancing your quality of life. SADI-S has the least chance of weight regain compared to other procedures.

This procedure is more complex than other weight loss options and is only suitable for some people. It is important to discuss your specific situation with a surgeon to determine whether this option is best for you.

SADI-S weight loss surgery in Orlando combines two effective procedures: Gastric Sleeve and Intestinal Bypass. This procedure involves removing a large portion of the stomach, creating a smaller, banana-shaped pouch, and reducing the amount of food you can eat. Next, a significant portion of the small intestine is bypassed, reducing the number of calories absorbed by the body during digestion. This part of the surgery also helps release powerful gut hormones that control appetite and accelerate your metabolism, meaning that you’ll feel less hungry. This approach allows patients to benefit from both increased portion control and a decrease in the amount of calories that the body retains.

While SADI-S is highly effective, it’s not suitable for everyone. Factors include your health history, overall goals, and ability to maintain a healthy and balanced lifestyle. To determine if it’s a good fit for you, we recommend a free consultation with Dr. Beltre. During your free consultation, we can assess your unique medical history and personal requirements and help you determine whether this procedure is the best option for you.

FAQs About SADI-S Weight Loss Surgery in Orlando, FL

While both involve bypassing a portion of the small intestine, SADI-S preserves the pyloric valve (the natural gate between the stomach and small intestine), which helps prevent dumping syndrome. For a detailed comparison, see our post on the difference between SADI-S and Gastric Bypass.

The cost of SADI-S Surgery can vary depending on whether you use insurance or choose a self-pay option. Because it is a more complex procedure, the cost reflects the specialized care and longer surgical time required. You can find a detailed breakdown on our SADI-S cost page.

Technically known as a single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass, the surgeon first creates a sleeve-shaped stomach. Then, the duodenum is cut just past the pyloric valve and reconnected to a loop of the small intestine. This “single connection” (anastomosis) simplifies the traditional duodenal switch while maintaining powerful metabolic effects.

Because SADI-S reduces calorie and nutrient absorption, you will need to take bariatric-specific multivitamins, calcium, and iron for the rest of your life. Regular blood work is a core part of our aftercare program to ensure your levels stay optimal.

A Duodenal Switch (SADI-S) can be an excellent method for achieving long-term results and can be very effective for significant and sustained weight loss.
