The surgeons have an established reputation for being world wide leaders in the field of Bariatric Surgery, as well as innovators in patient education and rehabilitation.

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
The surgeons at Rocky Mountain Associated Physicians perform the proximal Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass surgery. The proximal Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass surgery blends together the advantages of both the restrictive and malabsorptive procedures. In the proximal Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, 40 inches of the small intestine are bypassed. This enables the body to still absorb essential vitamins and minerals through food and supplementation. Patients benefit from this procedure by decreasing the amount of malabsorption and the risk of nutritional deficiencies while still reaching desired weight loss goals.

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
