Dr. Feiz' Patients Say Lap Band to Sleeve Helped Them Lose Weight

When it comes to weight loss surgery with Michael Feiz, MD, FACS, there is no one-size-fits-all procedure that works on everyone. Dr. Feiz and his patients have to carefully weigh the options of lap band vs. gastric sleeve vs. gastric bypass to make sure that they have the greatest chance of shedding their quality of life-diminishing obesity. Each surgery has its own pros and cons and, after factoring in a patient's wishes and unique circumstances, Dr. Feiz will strongly recommend one over the others.

Sometimes, however, patients from another surgeon will come to Dr. Feiz following a lap band operation with pain or other complications from the device. In these instances, Dr. Feiz will recommend a surgery to convert band to sleeve, which removes the band while simultaneously performing the sleeve gastrectomy. Many of these patients have spoken up in Dr. Feiz' ads, including these two patients:

• Angie J., who lost 120 pounds and learned that Dr. Feiz is "able to teach the procedure [which] shows a level of excellence."
• Millely, who lost over 110 pounds and believes "Dr. Feiz is amazing; he always had the time to sit down and answer all my questions."

And these are just two of Dr. Feiz' many glowing testimonials. These endorsements praise every step of the process, from Dr. Feiz' staff and bedside manner to his involvement during the recovery and post-bariatric processes. Many patients are sharing their feelings about all over the internet, including his Facebook page, review sites, and his own website. If you are morbidly obese or obese and suffering from obesity-related comorbidities, give Dr. Feiz & Associates a call to see if you qualify for a bariatric or conversion procedure.
