As a bariatric surgeon and patient I know all to well, the complex social and physical issues faced by the overweight population. I am empathetic to the plight of my overweight patients. With the introduction of the Lap Band procedure to my practice, I have had the pleasure of helping others reach their elusive weight goals. I applaud you for taking an active role in your health and wish you the best in your journey.
