Weight Loss Surgery
At RMAP, We understand that obesity is a disease. If left untreated severe obesity can lead to life altering conditions, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and sleep apnea. Our practice is skilled in evaluating each patient according to his or her individual needs and health goals. If you are considering bariatric surgery, we hope to be a resource and a partner with you to improve your health. We invite you to attend one of our free weekly information seminars taught by a bariatric surgeon. In this seminar you will have the opportunity to ask questions, and learn more about gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, duodenal switch (DS), and gastric band surgery.
