PATIENT WELCOME GUIDE

You don't need more willpower. You need the right system.

You didn't fail. The system failed you.
Batash Weight Loss — a year-long, complete non-surgical, incisionless system for long-term weight loss
Dr. Steven Batash developed these systems over 12 years.

We believe that lasting weight loss requires more than a procedure or medication alone.

Rather than relying on a single solution, our systems integrate the essential components needed for long-term success, including endoscopic weight-loss procedures, obesity medicine, eating psychology, personalized coaching, nutrition, and ongoing physician support.

OUR WEIGHT LOSS SYSTEMS

INTRAGASTRIC BALLOON WEIGHT LOSS SYSTEM™
PILLAR ONE: THE PROCEDURE
As the first step of this system, we place a soft, adjustable gastric balloon inside your stomach during a brief endoscopic procedure. The balloon occupies a significant portion of the stomach, so you feel full sooner and stay satisfied longer — you naturally eat smaller portions without constantly feeling hungry.
Removed at 7–8 months in a five-minute procedure
SUTURE SCULPT (ENDOSCOPIC SLEEVE) WEIGHT LOSS SYSTEM™
PILLAR ONE: THE PROCEDURE
As the first step of this system, we place a series of sutures — threads — along the inside of the stomach and draw them together, folding the stomach in on itself. The sutures hold that fold in place, reducing the stomach to roughly 20–30% of its usable volume, so you eat a little and fill up quickly. No cutting and nothing is removed.
Sutures stay in your stomach indefinitely
RESCULPT WEIGHT LOSS SYSTEM™
PILLAR ONE: THE REVISION
Had a bariatric procedure in the past and regained the weight? Resculpt revises your previous procedure — a second chance at lasting weight loss.
ALLURION LITE WEIGHT LOSS SYSTEM™
PILLAR ONE: THE PROCEDURE
Our lightest option: a swallowable balloon placed without endoscopy or anesthesia. The balloon is filled once in place, taking up space in the stomach so you feel full sooner and eat smaller portions. It is a shorter, gentler program for patients who want a lighter first step.
No endoscopy, no anesthesia — ask us whether it fits your goals
PILLARS TWO & THREE — INCLUDED WITH EVERY SYSTEM

To maximize your long-term success, we combine physical restriction with medical weight management (when appropriate), our specialized Eating Psychology program, and OnTrack Coaching — personalized guidance and accountability throughout your journey.

Our goal is simple: leave nothing to chance. Every component of the Batash Weight Loss System™ is designed to work together — addressing not only how much you eat, but your mindset, habits, lifestyle, and long-term maintenance.

QUAD A ACCREDITED

ACCREDITED, STATE-OF-THE-ART FACILITIES

Your safety is our highest priority.

Our facilities in New York and Florida operate in full compliance with all applicable state health department regulations and maintain the highest standards of patient safety, quality, and infection control.

Both centers are QUAD A (American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities) fully accredited, meeting rigorous national standards for outpatient surgical care — anesthesia safety, emergency preparedness, and continuous quality improvement. See our locations at batashmedical.com/our-locations.

THIS ISN'T A QUICK FIX. IT'S A YEAR-LONG SYSTEM.

Three pillars that work together to help you lose the weight and, most importantly, keep it off.

PILLAR 1
THE PROCEDURE
A non-surgical, incisionless balloon or Suture Sculpt (ESG) that reduces stomach capacity and jump-starts your progress.
PILLAR 2
MEDICAL SUPPORT
Physician oversight throughout, including GLP-1 weight-loss peptides when medically indicated for your situation.
PILLAR 3
COACHING & PSYCHOLOGY
Unlimited coaching, eating psychology, and real-life tools — the support that turns results into lasting habits.

HOW THE FIRST PILLAR WORKS: ENDOSCOPIC WEIGHT LOSS

01
NO CUTS, NO INCISIONS
Unlike traditional bariatric surgery, there are no cuts, no external incisions, and no permanent changes to your anatomy.
02
PRECISION THROUGH A FLEXIBLE SCOPE
A thin endoscope with a high-definition camera passes through the mouth, so the physician works from a large monitor with exceptional precision.
03
SATISFIED WITH SMALLER PORTIONS
Reducing the stomach's functional capacity makes healthier habits easier to build — while normal digestive function is preserved.

SIDE EFFECTS, TRAVEL & RECOVERY

EXPECTED SIDE EFFECTS
The most common side effects are nausea, cramping, and fatigue — all managed with medication, so you experience only mild discomfort.
And Dr. Batash is reachable through his private number, 24/7.
RECOVERY
2–3 day recovery
No incisions or external scars
No overnight hospital stay
Walk out of the center the same day
Just one overnight stay if traveling from out of town
TRAVEL
Traveling to one of our centers in New York or Miami? Plan to stay just one night, so we can see you the following morning for your post-procedure checkup before you return home.
Both locations sit conveniently near LaGuardia Airport (LGA) in New York and Miami International Airport (MIA).
A STRAIGHT ANSWER ON INSURANCE

INSURANCE DOES NOT COVER OUR YEAR-LONG WEIGHT-LOSS SYSTEM

We would rather tell you that up front than surprise you later. The program is paid for out of pocket, and we will walk you through the full cost at your complimentary consultation — no hidden line items.

THERE ARE EXCEPTIONS

If you have Oxford, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, Aetna, Emblem, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Florida Blue, or a self-insured fund — and your plan includes out-of-network coverage — we can see whether we are able to get partial coverage approved.

PAYMENT OPTIONS

Financing is available through CareCredit and Alphaeon Credit, so the program can be paid over time rather than all at once. Ask us and we will help you apply.
