Weight Loss Surgery
Weight loss surgery is a proven, long-term, effective treatment for the severely obese. NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital has one of the most experienced teams of weight loss surgeons in the country. Physicians here pioneered minimally invasive techniques, resulting in shorter hospital stays and recovery times. Their integrated approach – coordinating nutritional, medical, surgical, and behavioral services – offers our clients the best mix of strategies for achieving and maintaining permanent weight loss.
At NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, our world-class surgeons are experts in all types of bariatric surgeries as well as other abdominal laparoscopic procedures. In fact, some of our surgeons have helped to pioneer the development of procedures that are practiced today world-wide. Our Program offers both laparoscopic and open approaches for gastric bypass, duodenal switch, and LAP-BAND® surgical procedures, so that our healthcare team can develop the best possible customized treatment plan for our patients.
