Types of Gastric Surgery Performed

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
The Center for Weight Loss Surgery specializes in the Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass for qualifying persons who are typically 80 to 100 pounds over their ideal body weight, though this amount varies depending on height and gender. This procedure has the best long-term success for weight loss and can be accomplished either by traditional (open) surgery or by minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgery. The procedure offers tremendous results with most patients losing 80% of their excess body weight within the first 12 to 18 month after surgery. Most insurance companies, including Medicare and Medicaid cover weight loss surgery. Our staff will work with you and your insurance company to determine if your insurance plan covers this procedure. Payment options are also available.

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
