Dr. Adriana Rotundo

Dr. Adriana Rotundo is a Specialist in Bariatric and General Surgery at Medcare Royal Speciality Hospital in Dubai, with over 21 years of surgical experience. She trained in Italy, completing her MBBS and MD from Magna Graecia University of Catanzaro and her specialist general surgery qualification (CCST) from La Sapienza University in Rome. She then undertook advanced bariatric fellowships in the UK, including training at University College Hospital London and Churchill Hospital Oxford, recognized by the Royal College of Surgeons.

Dr. Rotundo has built a career across Italy, the UK, and the UAE, holding consultant roles in upper gastrointestinal and bariatric surgery. She performs a wide range of weight-loss procedures—including gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, and mini-gastric bypass—as well as hernia repairs, reflux surgery, and reconstructive abdominal-wall surgery. She is also skilled in less invasive endoscopic treatments such as gastric balloons and feeding-tube placement. Her special focus includes gastroesophageal reflux disease (acid reflux) and hiatal hernia, managing these from initial diagnosis through surgical intervention.

Fluent in English and Italian, Dr. Rotundo is a member of the International Bariatric Club, the Emirates Medical Association, and the Emirates Surgical Metabolic and Bariatric Society. She is a good fit if you need complex weight-loss surgery, reflux or hernia repair, or follow-up revisional surgery after a previous bariatric procedure.
