We have devoted the necessary resources to provide you with comprehensive care, including patient education, pre-surgical counseling, advanced surgical options, and long-term post-surgical care.
Please note that all weight loss surgery patients, regardless of the procedure performed should avoid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) like ibuprofen, Advil, Alleve, Motrin, Naproxen, aspirin, etc. These drugs can cause ulcers and bleeding in the stomach.
