What Are the Four Types of Bariatric Surgery?

 

Bariatric surgery is a great way to lose weight, especially if you have been struggling with weight loss and weight-related comorbidities for a long time. But bariatric surgery comes in several different forms. There are four types of bariatric surgery procedures: Gastric Bypass, Sleeve Gastrectomy, Lap Band Surgery, and Revisional Surgery. 

Four Types of Bariatric Surgery

So the most common surgeries we are performing in the United States are the Gastric Bypass or Roux-en-y, Sleeve Gastrectomy, or, to some people known as vertical sleeve gastrectomy, three was Lap Band Surgery, and the fourth is Revisional Surgery.

I just would like to say that he’s an amazing Doctor ! He communicates effectively, super kind, encouraging, and so much more. I recently did my procedure around December and I’m already over 20 pounds down, recovering great. I feel amazing a month later and super excited for what this journey has planned for me . Dr. Choi and his team are always on standby if I have any concerns or questions, I was even provided a huge packet with everything that I should know and do . I would definitely recommend him to anyone, he’s awesome and certainly knows what he’s doing !

I just had my surgery on November 30 and I have to say he did a great job. I was in pain the first day by the second third day I was fine walking around, feeling a lot better and only four days in and I lost 10 pounds. I wish I would’ve found him sooner. Dr. Choi knows what he’s doing. He is very caring and understanding even checking up on me at home I can’t wait to see what the future holds. ???
