Perth Obesity Surgery

Is obesity affecting your health or your ability to work?

"Laparoscopic Gastric Banding" can achieve long term weight loss where repeated attempts at dieting have failed.

"Laparoscopic Gastric Banding" is not only the safest of the surgical procedures available for long term weight loss but also it is the only one that is readily reversible (which may be very important in the future). Despite this it has comparable long-term results to the more invasive surgical alternatives.

"Laparoscopic Gastric Banding" has been performed on more than 300,000 people over the past 14 years and has proven itself effective in the management of many obesity related medical conditions including diabetes, sleep apnoea, hypertension, and gastric reflux.

It is for the above reasons that "Perth Obesity Surgery" specialises solely in "Laparoscopic Gastric Banding" as the surgical treatment of obesity. "Perth Obesity Surgery" offers a comprehensive approach to weight loss. All patients have access to a clinical nurse, a bariatric dietitian and where necessary referral to a psychologist and / or exercise therapist.
