What is Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery includes a range of different procedures to achieve optimum weight loss. All of these procedures involve the reduction of the size of the stomach, either through removal or rerouting of a portion of stomach/intestinal tissue, or with a temporary implanted device that shrinks the stomach pouch, but leaves all tissues intact.
Different types of bariatric surgical procedures include:
- Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band
- Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
- The Sleeve Gastrectomy
Alleviating Obesity and Related Health Conditions
Bariatric procedures have evolved greatly in recent years with minimally invasive laparoscopic and robotically assisted approaches that greatly improve the recovery process for patients. In addition to the dramatic weight loss, patients can experience marked improvements and even the elimination of other diseases that accompany morbid obesity, such as hypertension, arthritis, diabetes, sleep apnea and heart disease. And with fewer doctor visits, medications and work absenteeism, the financial gain can be as dramatic as the physical and emotional aspects. Request an appointment with a bariatric specialist now.
