Obesity Surgery Questions
What other weight-loss surgery options do you do other than the gastric band?
We also offer the gastric bypass, gastric sleeve and the gastric balloon. The gastric band procedure is the most common, however all have their own advantages when it comes to weight-loss. The procedure most suitable to a person can often be determined by their BMI, as well as their individual medical needs and requirements.
