medical-treatment-of-obesity-through-bariatric-surgeryIf you have tried everything to loose weight, and you have a lot of weight to loose, you might want to consider bariatric surgery.

Whether you have surgery to make your stomach smaller and bypass some of your intestine (Roux-en-Y) or have an adjustable silicone band placed to decrease your stomach pouch (Lap Band/Gastric Banding/Gastric Sleeve), bariatric surgery may be your best chance to lose weight. For those who are severely overweight, weight-loss surgery and lifestyle changes can lead to a longer and healthier life.

It's not what you've got to lose, it's what you'll gain. How do you know if you're a good candidate for bariatric surgery?

Listen in as Michael Morris, MD explains bariatric surgery options at Doctors Hospital of Laredo and how our goal is to support you with valuable, accurate information about bariatric surgery.
