When you meet with our staff for a consultation about medically supervised weight loss or weight loss surgery in Houston or Cypress, we will carefully consider what will help you attain the best possible outcome for you, your lifestyle, and your goals. Sometimes, this is weight loss surgery, such as gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, or duodenal switch. Other times, a carefully supervised diet and exercise program is just what a patient needs to kick-start a healthy, active life.
We will work tirelessly to educate patients on their weight loss options, including bariatric surgery, until we have found the treatment and care path that is ideal for each individual patient we see. Request a consultation online or call our office at (713) 426-2400 for more information about how you can take the steps toward improving your life.

The term minimally invasive surgery is used to describe abdominal surgery performed without making a large incision though the skin and muscle to open the abdomen. Instead, a scope is inserted though a trochar inserted into the abdomen though a 1/2 inch incision. The abdomen is inflated with CO2 gas to distend it like a tent, allowing visualization of the abdominal organs.
