Weight Loss Surgeon Manhattan at The Center for Obesity Surgery

Are you one of the millions who are suffering from obesity? If so, you need to consult a weight loss surgeon who can give you the advice and treatment you need to get your health back. The Columbia Medical Center/Center for Obesity Surgery can tell you if surgery may be the right step for you. Unfortunately in many cases, even the strictest of diets and exercise programs fail for obese people looking for long-term results. At Columbia Medical Center, if you're looking for answers, they'll work to properly address your questions and concerns.

If surgery for obesity management is right for you, you'll find that the risks for such a procedure are less than the health risks that come with being overweight. In such procedures, the stomach is divided into two portions: the small portion is your new stomach where your food goes. As you eat the food enters your pouch and empties slowly, but since your stomach is very small now, you will feel full very quickly.

The Columbia Medical Center/Center for Obesity Surgery specializes in the following techniques that will drastically improve your life:

• Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
  
• Banded Gastric Bypass
  
• LapBand
  
• Gastric Sleeve
  
• Duodenal Switch
  

If you're considering weight loss surgery, you need to find a surgeon who specializes in more than one technique. The surgeons at the Columbia Medical Center specialize in a variety of techniques, each of which is meant to fit your condition and lifestyle. They'll educate you on which procedure is right for you and how to reach and maintain optimal health.
