Dr. Pial Hope is a board-certified general surgeon with fellowship training in minimally invasive bariatric and non-bariatric foregut surgery. He a wide array of ASMBS-endorsed stapled operations, including sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and BPD-DS/SADI-S/SIPS. He exclusively performs robotic-assisted surgeries and incorporates Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols, an approach that significantly reduces post-operative discomfort, accelerates recovery, and enables patients to return to daily activities and work much faster. In addition to primary bariatric procedures, Dr. Hope provides the complete range of revisional bariatric surgery, a highly specialized and complex area within the field. Patients who experience complications or less-than-ideal outcomes after bariatric surgery often face difficulty finding a surgeon who is both willing and qualified to help. Dr. Hope is committed to thoroughly evaluating these patients and providing tailored recommendations. While not all cases require revisional surgery, his comprehensive and thoughtful assessments ensure that both common issues and more nuanced challenges are carefully addressed, ultimately leading to the best possible outcomes. Beyond bariatrics, Dr. Hope also performs a high volume of non-bariatric foregut surgery for benign foregut pathology, including hiatal and paraesophageal hernias as well as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). He also has significant expertise in surgery for gastrointestinal motility disorders, such as achalasia and gastroparesis.
