Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
NCR Hospital general surgery specialist Dr. Serkan Giray said obesity surgery is not merely a weight-loss procedure but a means of regaining health and life, and that it represents an important treatment option against chronic risks such as diabetes and hypertension in suitable patients who have not achieved results through lifestyle changes. He emphasized that not everyone carrying excess weight is a candidate for stomach-reduction surgery, pushing back on common misconceptions about the operations. The comments position bariatric surgery as a medical intervention for carefully selected cases rather than a blanket solution for excess weight.
