If you are one of many American adults who has a body mass index of 40 or greater, you know how tough it can be to stay healthy. Weight loss is the best way to avoid comorbid diseases like diabetes, heart disease, joint pain, sleep apnea, and even reproductive problems and depression. However, reaching a healthy goal weight is tough without help. Michael Feiz, M.D., F.A.C.S., founded Dr. Feiz & Associates to help patients just like you reach their weight loss goals. He is a leading weight loss surgery specialist on the West Coast, offering such procedures as sleeve gastrectomy Los Angeles patients benefit from.

Dr. Feiz and his team are also leading experts in sleeve gastrectomy after Lap Band. This procedure helps the patients who have a Lap Band device, but who have not received weight loss benefits from this procedure. During the procedure, the Lap Band is removed, then Dr. Feiz will remove roughly 75 to 85 percent of the stomach using the gastric sleeve technique. This creates a small sleeve that preserves the basic functioning of the stomach, but which can significantly reduce the appetite. Dr. Feiz and his team offers personal follow-up before and after the procedure, as well, to make sure patients understand the surgery, what they need to do to ensure their success, and that they are healing well.

Contact Dr. Feiz & Associates today to ask about band to sleeve revision and sleeve gastrectomy for weight loss. He and his team are here to help you, so contact us to set up your first appointment today.
