We have committed significant resources to establish dedicated, purpose built Circle of Care clinics. We engage allied health professionals in nutrition, psychology, exercise and general health, all of whom have an interest and expertise in treating obesity. We have used the experience of treating many thousands of patients to develop (and continue to refine) our multi-disciplinary programs.
The most important information which comes from our research studies shows that:
- Gastric banding is a safe procedure.
- Gastric banding leads to between 50 to 60% of excess weight loss.
- Weight loss following gastric banding leads to resolution and improvement of most of the diseases caused by obesity.
- Weight loss following gastric banding leads to improvement in quality of life.
