Revisional Weight Loss Surgery

Our weight loss experts can help you!

Each weight loss procedure has different short and long-term results, as well as unique long-term complications. Patients who have had ill effects as a result of weight loss surgery may require other procedures to correct the original operation. These types of operations are called revisional weight loss surgery.

Our experts surgeons have performed more than 200 revisions from other weight loss procedures such as gastric bypass, adjustable gastric banding, and sleeve gastrectomy on patients from all over the United States.
