Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass (Roux-en-Y)
This surgical gastric bypass procedure decreases the size of the stomach and bypasses part of the small intestine. Weight loss is achieved through reduced food intake and absorbtion. Depending on a patient's needs, Memorial Bariatric Center offers this procedure.

RealizeTM & LAP-BANDR Adjustable Gastric Band Systems
An adjustable gastric band is used to decrease the size of the stomach and can be periodically adjusted through a port in the abdomen. Gastric bands are innovative treatment options for morbid obesity and can help you achieve lasting results by limiting food intake, reducing appetite and slowing digestion. The pounds do not come off by themselves, however. It is important to understand that you play an active role in the weight-loss process and ultimate success of the procedure. Play LAP-Band Video
