"The balloon is not a panacea – You have to follow the regime to achieve success. Program yourself for weight loss and teach yourself to regulate food intake."
– Dr. Peter Goh, Starcap Medical Group
"We used to think that obesity was a lifestyle choice – but now we know, that nobody chooses to be overweight or obese. Sometimes, even if people try hard, they cannot lose weight on their own. That's why we need a comprehensive weight management program."
– Dr. Melvin Look, Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre
"My patient, Mr. A has since completed the BIB program successfully. He has lost a total of 37 kg on follow-up reviews after the balloon was removed. He feels good, lives well and no longer requires medication for his hypertension. With the support of our team he was able to use the BIB as a focal point for change, establishing important lifestyle habits that will result in sustainable weight control in the long run."

"The results were better than expected - after Ms J lost 20 kgs, she stopped all her medication for diabetes and was able to control it on diet alone! The balloon is a powerful tool that goes beyond weight loss. As part of a holistic programme, it becomes an essential component in the treatment of metabolic disease"
