SEREMBAN, May 22 – Mawar Medical Centre has achieved a major medical milestone by becoming the first hospital in Negeri Sembilan to perform Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG), a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure that aids significant weight loss and tackles obesity-related conditions without surgery.
Spearheaded by Consultant Gastroenterologist Dr Sattian Kollanthavelu, the team successfully completed five ESG procedures in a single day, highlighting its effectiveness as a quick, scar-free day-care treatment. Ideal for individuals with a BMI of 28 and above, ESG not only reduces stomach size but also leads to lasting health improvements in diabetes, hypertension, and fatty liver disease—ushering in a new era of holistic, sustainable obesity management in Malaysia.
