Why Choose Me?
I’ve performed hundreds of successful revision surgeries over the last 2 decades from revisions some of the older bariatric surgeries such as the jejune-ileal bypass and the Vertical Banded Gastroplasty, to removing gastric bands and revising gastric sleeves and bypasses. I've had a long career doing just these types of complex cases. I've pretty much seen all the issues and I'm sure your case wouldn't be something I haven't taken care of many times before. Once you’ve lost the weight, and if you choose to take the next step, I’m here to offer a seamless, integrated approach to your care through skin removal surgery or body contouring.
You’re not alone. Many of my patients have achieved lasting success after their revision surgery. You can too. In fact my office manager, Lulu, whom I did a gastric Bypass on about 22 years ago, and then a revision procedure a decade later. She's still with me, and has maintained her weight loss from over 300lbs to 185lbs, which is perfect for 5'11".
Surgical Safety
Your safety is my top priority. I want you to feel confident knowing that I follow the highest standards to ensure a safe, smooth surgery. From the moment we start your pre-operative evaluation, I’ll make sure we cover everything needed to reduce risks and ensure the best outcome possible.
For over 2 decades, we've been performing these procedures laparoscopically, using tiny skin incisions and cameras. We have modified the older procedures in an effort to making them safer overall. Instruments and surgical staplers have also improved over this time period adding to the safety. And of course surgery experience adds to patient safety. You should know that a lot of patients have successfully undergone some type of revision procedure through us, as this a very common part of our surgical practice.
Advanced Surgical Techniques: I use minimally invasive techniques whenever possible, which means smaller incisions, less pain, and faster recovery.
Pre-Surgery Evaluation: We’ll go over your medical history and perform necessary tests to ensure you're a good candidate for surgery.
State-of-the-Art Facility: I operate in a fully accredited surgical center equipped with the latest technology.
Comprehensive Aftercare: My team and I will monitor your recovery closely, offering support every step of the way to ensure a smooth and safe healing process.
