LAP-BAND Patients are Progressing Well

Saturday, May 22nd, 2010

Our LAP-BAND patients are continuing to progress well.  The most recent five patients, who underwent surgery on April 23, have lost between 8 lbs to 19 lbs since the surgery.  We aim for an average  loss of 2 to 4 pounds per week.  The adjustments to the band are made to maintain a satisfied sensation of fullness with three small meal portions per day.

We have officially launched our LAP-BAND adjustable gastric banding program.  We are honoured to share this journey with our patients.   The program includes a multi-disciplinary comprehensive approach to achieving permanent weight loss, with psychologists, nutritionists, personal trainers, registered nurses, and two general surgeons.  Recent studies have demonstrated the program to be safe and highly effective in combating obesity and its associated medical conditions.
