Slim Surgical

Bariatric Surgery in Tomball, TX

Transforming Lives with Minimally Invasive & Robotic Precision

At Slim Surgical, our mission is to provide life-changing weight loss solutions through advanced bariatric surgery, led by the exceptional expertise of Dr. Angela Kaza. With over two decades of experience, Dr. Kaza is a board-certified bariatric and hernia surgeon who combines compassionate care with cutting-edge technology to help patients achieve lasting weight loss and better health.

Bariatric surgery has become one of the most effective and sustainable solutions for individuals struggling with obesity and obesity-related diseases. It goes beyond short-term weight loss—it’s a powerful tool for reversing chronic conditions, enhancing mobility, restoring confidence, and prolonging life.


What Is Bariatric Surgery?

Bariatric surgery includes several types of procedures that alter the digestive system to assist with weight loss. These surgeries typically work by:

  • Restricting how much you can eat
  • Limiting nutrient absorption
  • Influencing hungerregulating hormones like ghrelin and GLP-1

At Slim Surgical, we specialize in minimally invasive and robotic-assisted techniques that result in:

  • Smaller incisions
  • Less postoperative pain
  • Lower complication rates
  • Quicker recovery

Conditions Bariatric Surgery Can Improve or Resolve:

  • Type 2 Diabetes
  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea
  • Heart Disease Risks
  • Joint Pain & Limited Mobility
  • Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)
  • Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
  • Fatty Liver Disease


Why Bariatric Surgery?

Not Just Weight Loss—A Health Transformation

Bariatric surgery isn’t just about aesthetics. It’s a proven medical intervention that:

  • Reduces all-cause mortality
  • Improves life expectancy by up to 10 years
  • Increases fertility
  • Enhances mental health and quality of life

According to numerous clinical studies, patients often lose 50%–70% of excess body weight within 12–18 months post-surgery. Many also experience remission of diabetes and stop needing medications for hypertension and high cholesterol.


Types of Bariatric Surgery at Slim Surgical

We offer the most effective and safe surgical options available, tailored to each patient’s unique needs.


Gastric Sleeve Surgery

A Powerful, Life-Changing Weight Loss Option

Gastric sleeve surgery, or sleeve gastrectomy, is the most commonly performed bariatric procedure today. During the surgery, Dr. Kaza removes about 80% of the stomach, creating a smaller, tube-shaped “sleeve.” This procedure:

  • Significantly reduces appetite
  • Helps control portions
  • Alters hunger-related hormones
  • Improves insulin sensitivity

Benefits of Gastric Sleeve:

  • Rapid Weight Loss: Many patients lose 60–70% of excess weight within the first year.
  • Diabetes Remission: Over 75% see improvement or resolution in Type 2 Diabetes.
  • Long-Term Success: Effective weight loss maintained beyond 5 years with lifestyle adherence.
  • Fewer Complications: Lower risk than gastric bypass with excellent results.

Robotic-Assisted Sleeve Gastrectomy:

Dr. Kaza utilizes robotic surgery platforms, allowing for:

  • Unmatched precision
  • Real-time 3D visualization
  • Greater control in tight areas
  • Faster healing and minimized scar tissue

This translates to shorter hospital stays, reduced postoperative pain, and an accelerated return to daily activities.

Hernia Surgery

Expert Repairs with Advanced Technology

Dr. Angela Kaza is also renowned for her expertise in hernia repair, offering minimally invasive solutions for various types of hernias:

  • Ventral hernias
  • Umbilical hernias
  • Inguinal hernias
  • Incisional hernias

What Is a Hernia?

A hernia occurs when an organ or fatty tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. It can cause:

  • Bulging or swelling
  • Discomfort or pain (especially when lifting)
  • Intestinal blockage
  • Risk of strangulation (a medical emergency)

Types of Hernia Repairs Offered:

  • Laparoscopic Surgery: Small incisions and faster healing
  • RoboticAssisted Surgery: Enhanced visualization and dexterity for complex repairs
  • Open Surgery (when necessary for larger or recurrent hernias)

Benefits of Minimally Invasive Hernia Repair:

  • Reduced postoperative pain
  • Lower recurrence rates
  • Quicker return to work and normal life
  • Lower infection risk

Dr. Kaza’s expertise ensures not just repair, but long-term reinforcement of the abdominal wall, using highquality mesh and evidencebased techniques.
