It might help if you defined the acronym. SIPS stands for Stomach Intestinal Pylorus-Sparing Surgery. The procedure is described as a modified duodenal switch. The new procedure involves the formation of a sleeve gastrectomy that is slightly larger than the usual sleeve combined with a shortened amount of intestine that is attached below the pyloric valve, the natural outlet controlling the emptying of solid food from the stomach.

So no I haven't heard about this procedure until I looked it up. Since it is new, it has a very minor track record and it is not possible to tell how many patients have this procedure and the results.
