Question:
Is there a comparison chart on the different surgeries and their risks?

I have seen a list of three different type of surgeries, their risks/advantages etc. I cannot find that list. Does anyone know where that list is posted? I have had surgery and a friend was interested in looking at the comparisons.    — Colleen H. (posted on September 13, 2004)

There is a site that I found and it is http://www.gr-ds.com/generalinformation/comparison.html it is a surgical center called Central Valley Bariatrics I am not really sure where they are located at. They have the above link that has a really good comparison chart on the different types of bariatric surgery. There is a printable PDF format page. Good luck.

They are located in Central California just between Fresno and Bakersfield.

The prior website has been changed. For a list of risks/advantages of the different types of surgeries, go to www.dssurgery.com

http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/information/wlsjourney/surgery+types.php Is a great general guide. Use common sense when reviewing a comparison chart by a surgeons group. It will invaribly recommend the ones they do...
