    What is Sips?

    SIPS/SADI/"Loop DS" (three names for the same thing) is a simplified DS-like procedure using a VSG (like the DS) but a simpler intestinal rerouting that is hoped to provide results similar to (or "close enough") the DS but in a procedure that can be done by more surgeons (the DS is a technically challenging procedure, such that many surgeons can't, or don't want to, develop and, most particularly, maintain the skills to perform.) At this point it is still generally considered to be "investigational" meaning that insurance rarely covers it.

    As for the OP, I would expect that it would be similar to the bypass or DS, with 2-4 days in the hospital and 2-4 weeks at home depending upon how physical ones' work is.
