Laparoscopy is preferable to “open” surgery because it is less invasive and produces the same, if not a better outcome. Dr. Feiz has performed gastric banding and gastric sleeve procedures and helped innumerable patients reach a healthy weight and live a longer, happier life. By utilizing laparoscopy, Dr. Feiz is able to access the stomach with minimal incisions, and for select patients, only one incision no bigger than a grain of rice is used to access the stomach. Patients who have the one-incision surgery, called “The STARR Treatment,” experience minimal post-operative pain and optimal cosmetic results due to the very small scar that results.
