Is surgery all a weight loss doctor can offer?
Many people who meet with a weight loss doctor come to discuss their options for surgical weight loss treatment. However there are also non-surgical treatments available in addition to bariatric surgery.
Below we’ll highlight some of the different surgical and non-surgical options that are available at Dallas Bariatric Center.
Surgical options
Surgical solutions are designed to enable those who have been struggling to lose their excess weight through diet and exercise to finally achieve the results they’ve been striving for.
The most common types of weight loss surgery options include:
- Gastric bypass
- Sleeve gastrectomy
- LAP-BAND® system (Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding)
These and other surgical options are available at Dallas Bariatric Center. Learn more.
Non-surgical options
An increasingly popular non-surgical option is the gastric balloon. This simple procedure was specifically designed for patients with a BMI between 30 and 40. The entire procedure only takes only about 20 to 30 minutes, and most people go home on the same day.
This non-surgical treatment includes behavioral therapy, along with a diet and exercise plan that is supervised by our staff for accountability. This multicomponent approach helps patients make the lifestyle and mindset changes that will enable them to be successful.
Dr. Jay is also able to provide other non-surgical tools and support, including:
- Weight management evaluations
- Nutrition counseling
- Exercise support
- Pre-surgery evaluations
- Post-surgery evaluations
