WE DO THINGS A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY

Whether you require support for weight loss, an upper GI condition or have general surgery requirements, Dr Balalis performs a range of different surgeries all via keyhole, and offers medical therapy and non-surgical approaches to weight loss including diet, medication and lifestyle support as well as the placement of Allurion Gastric Balloons.

Within a supportive space – Morphē Clinic – Dr Balalis offers a fully specialised and collaborative team of dietitians, bariatric general practitioners, psychologists, exercise physiologists, bariatric nurses, including plastic, cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, and where needed, anaesthetists and an endocrinologist.

Regardless of what treatment option you choose, Dr Balalis and his team are sure to remain across all aspects of your care, at every stage of your journey. That means no third-party referrals or unfamiliar faces.
