Our Services

Specialized care is offered in the following areas:

• Abdominal wall reconstruction to treat complex hernias or trauma to the abdomen
• Laparoscopic surgery to treat severe (Class III) obesity
• Weight-loss surgery options:
  • Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, in which a small stomach pouch is created to restrict food intake.
  • LAP-Band® surgery, in which a band is placed around the upper part of the stomach to create a small pouch to hold food. The band limits the amount of food that’s consumed by making the patient feel full after eating small amounts.
  • Sleeve gastrectomy, which involves removing about 85% of the stomach. The smaller-sized stomach holds less food, creating a feeling of fullness with significantly less food.

All weight-loss surgery options include education and support from nursing, nutrition, and psychological service providers.
