Michael Feiz, M.D., F.A.C.S. of Dr. Feiz & Associates is recognized as a pioneer in weight loss surgery options ranging from lap band to sleeve gastrectomy. However, for some patients suffering from particularly severe obesity or health issues relating to weight, gastric bypass is the best option.
Sometimes known colloquially as stomach stapling, gastric bypass is a procedure wherein the stomach is literally stapled shut using a microscopic camera. While the surgery is more invasive than some of the esteemed doctor’s other weight loss solutions, it is also highly effective, and at times, life-saving. In fact, bariatric procedures have proven effective against such killer diseases as Type 2 diabetes and cardiac disease.
Obese or extremely overweight individuals in Southern California are likely to have a surgeon as experienced and skilled as Dr. Feiz in their area. A world class surgeon, Dr. Feiz completed his residency in surgery at the world famous Los Angeles County USC Medical Center before performing his fellowship work at Cedars Sinai Medical Center. There, he received specialized training in bariatric and minimally invasive surgery. Today, Dr. Feiz boasts a zero mortality rate and an incredible reputation for success with patients from around the globe.
