Bariatric Surgery - Introduction

When it comes to choosing the right weight loss solution/program, Dr.Terushkin works directly with his patients and certified staff to come up with tailored individual plans for every case. This is done, so patients can loose weight, keep it off and implement the lifestyle changes necessary to stay healthy and live happy lives. Obesity has been linked to a number of health risks that can be improved by taking control of your weight with bariatric surgery. Taking control of your weight with bariatric surgery can help prevent all of these health risks and a host of additional afflictions, such as severe heartburn, incontinence, venous problems of the legs, lower back and joint pain, and shortness of breath. Our philosophy is providing surgical excellence by combining cutting edge technology and individualized patient care. A few of the most commonly performed procedures include laparoscopic gastric banding, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, laparoscopic gallbladder surgery, and laparoscopic hernia repair.
