The Lap Band Procedure
In adjustable gastric banding (the Lap Band procedure), the stomach is encircled with an inflatable band that restricts food intake. This allows only a small portion of the stomach to be used for holding food so that you feel “full” on much less food.

 

Bariatric Surgery Centers - Dallas

Morbid obesity is quite prevalent in the United States. It is estimated that over half of the U.S. population is overweight, one third is obese, and 5% of the population is morbidly obese. This translates into billions of healthcare dollars each year spent on complications of morbid obesity (diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, GERD, cardiovascular disease, arthritis) and over 300,000 obesity related deaths annually.

Our Bariatric Surgery Centers in Dallas offer weight loss surgery via the Lap Band and Gastric Bypass procedures. A multi-disciplinary team of dietitians, psychologists, respiratory therapists, physical therapists, an anesthesiologist, a bariatric surgery team and a bariatric nurse coordinator has been dedicated to the treatment of these patients suffering from this disease.

Surgery is an exciting option for the appropriate candidates because it offers them the opportunity to transform their lives. They statistically live longer, healthier lives with a higher quality of existence.
