Types of Weight Loss Surgery Performed

1. Gastric Bypass, Roux en-Y
2. Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass, Roux en-Y
3. Distal Gastric Bypass

Gastric Bypass, Roux en-Y
We consider Gastric Bypass to be the premium operation, offering the best combination of maximum weight control, and minimum nutritional risk.

Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass, Roux en-Y
We developed the techniques for performing the Gastric Bypass by laparoscopy, or limited access, and performed the first such procedure in 1993 -- we have now performed over 1200 such operations. This operation duplicates the anatomy and physiology of the standard, open procedure.

Distal Gastric Bypass
This procedure is offered by some, as a means of avoiding late weight gain which may follow the restrictive operations. We prefer to perform the restrictive operation to a higher standard, and to emphasize the importance of appropriate eating afterward.

Laparoscopic or open bariatric surgery, such as gastric banding or bypass is not an easy solution to morbid obesity and weight loss. It is a serious surgical procedure, involving health risks. To produce lasting weight loss it requires a long-term patient commitment to eating a healthy diet and following a regular program of physical exercise. Life-long use of nutritional supplements may also be necessary. So, before deciding, discuss your options fully with your doctor. © 2003-2008 Bariatric-Surgery.Info - Terms - Contact - Information - Resources - Add URL
