Another unique aspect of our practice is that we do all of our procedures through a laparoscopic approach. We use six little quarter-inch incisions and TV cameras in order to accomplish the surgery rather than a large open incision. The advantage of that is it shortens recovery time. Many of the complications that occurred with bariatric surgery in the past were due to problems with a very large incision trying to heal, getting infections or poor healing, or getting hernias afterwards. So, our patients are pretty much back to normal activities in about a week and after three weeks there are no restrictions.
