What are the benefits of weight loss surgery?

Research shows that bariatric surgery can be an effective way to lose weight, manage chronic conditions and live longer. Benefits include:

• Bariatric surgery reduces the risk of premature death by 30-40%.
• Weight loss surgery helps prevent or improve more than 40 obesity-related diseases, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, sleep apnea and certain cancers.
• Patients lose as much as 77% of excess weight 12 months after surgery.
• This is a long-term solution. On average, patients maintain 50% of their weight loss five years after surgery.

Patients can gain improvements to overall health every day through our program. We call this freedom!

Why do we use the da Vinci Robotic Surgical System?

Luminis Health is an early adopter of robotic surgery and we continue to advance minimally invasive techniques to improve outcomes for our patients. To be clear: A robot doesn't perform the surgery. Rather, this revolutionary method allows us to perform precise surgery by using instruments we guide through a console.

It's minimally invasive surgery, meaning our surgeons can perform procedures through tiny incisions. The miniature instruments move like the human hand, but with greater range of motion.

The advantages of the da Vinci Robotic surgical system include:

• A shorter hospital stay.
• Less pain.
• Less blood loss.
• Lower risk of infection.
• Less scarring.
