Dr. Terushkin: Now Seeing Patients at Florida Wellness & Medical Care

We are excited to announce that Dr. Sergey Terushkin, a renowned bariatric surgeon, is now seeing patients at our new clinic as well as at Florida Wellness & Primary Care Clinic. Dr. Terushkin is dedicated to helping patients achieve their weight loss goals through a variety of surgical and non-surgical options.

Bariatric Procedures Offered

• Gastric Sleeve Surgery: Also known as sleeve gastrectomy, this procedure involves removing a portion of the stomach to create a smaller, sleeve-shaped stomach. This reduces appetite and helps with weight loss by limiting food intake.
• Gastric Bypass Surgery: This procedure involves creating a small stomach pouch and bypassing a portion of the small intestine, which reduces calorie absorption and helps with significant weight loss.
• Adjustable Gastric Banding (Lap-Band): This involves placing an adjustable band around the upper part of the stomach to create a small pouch, which limits food intake and promotes weight loss.
• Duodenal Switch Surgery: This complex procedure combines sleeve gastrectomy with intestinal bypass to significantly reduce the amount of food and nutrients absorbed, leading to substantial weight loss.
• Revisional Bariatric Surgery: For patients who have had previous weight loss surgeries but need additional help or a different approach, revisional surgery can be performed to improve outcomes.

Weight Loss Injections and Medications

• Wegovy® (Semaglutide): A once-weekly injection that helps with weight loss by mimicking a hormone that regulates appetite and food intake.
• Ozempic® (Semaglutide): Originally used for type 2 diabetes, Ozempic® also aids in weight loss by regulating blood sugar levels and appetite.
• Mounjaro® (Tirzepatide): A medication that targets multiple hormones involved in hunger and glucose control, assisting in significant weight loss.
• ZepBound® (Tirzepatide): Similar to Mounjaro®, this medication helps manage weight by influencing appetite and insulin levels.
