A less invasive way to lose weight.
Two small magnets make a short cut inside your gut, so you feel full with smaller meals, absorb fewer calories and the weight stays off.
Both free. The assessment is with Dr Loy, online or in person. The call is with our bariatric patient team.
Why This Lasts When The Others Didn't
- Diets
- Your body fights back with hunger, and the weight creeps back.
- Weight loss medication
- Works while you take it. Stop, and the hunger returns, and the side effects and monthly cost add up.
- Operations that remove or staple part of your stomach
- They last, but recovery takes weeks, and what's removed can't be put back.
- MagDI™
- Done once. Less invasive than a gastric bypass or sleeve, so it's safer and you recover faster: home the next day, back to desk work in about a week. You feel full sooner and absorb fewer calories, so you lose weight and it stays off.

“…I felt it was the first time in my life I was genuinely being listened to and not just blamed or judged for being overweight.”
How MagDI™ Helps You Lose Weight
-
No cutting, no staples
You swallow one small magnet. While you're asleep, Dr Loy places a second one close by, and the two click together. Nothing is cut away or stapled.
-
Nothing is left inside you
Over two to three weeks, the magnets gently open a small shortcut for your food. Then they leave your body naturally. You won't feel it.
-
Smaller meals feel like enough
Food that takes the shortcut reaches the part of your gut that says “I'm full” sooner. So you're satisfied with less, and you're not hungry all the time.
Worried About An Operation? That's Normal.
- “It's a big operation and I'd be out for weeks.”
- About an hour asleep, home the next morning, back to desk work in about a week.
- “It's forever.”
- It's reversible. Nothing is removed, so the new path can be closed again if it's ever needed.
- “I have type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure.”
- That's often why people come to us. Both often ease as the weight comes off.
- “I'll be judged.”
- Not here. You'll be listened to, not lectured.
Whatever is on your mind, ask it at your free assessment. That's what it's for.
