Gastric Bypass Surgery

Gastric Bypass Surgery With Dr. Loren Borud

One of the more commonly known surgical treatments for morbid obesity and massive weight loss is gastric bypass surgery. Dr. Loren Borud, a renowned and respected plastic surgeon in the United States and around the world, provides excellent consultations regarding gastric bypass surgery and body contouring.

Gastric bypass surgery, during its early years of development, was considered a radical procedure. It involved many significant health complications, such as seemingly dangerous anesthesia, and was only used during the most extreme cases involving morbid obesity. The procedure involves dividing the patient’s stomach into a smaller pouch and a larger pouch and the rearrangement of the small intestines in order to keep the two pouches connected to it.

The rate of gastric bypass procedures has skyrocketed since it was first used during the early 1990s. Dr. Loren Borud, with his long years of medical experience and vast amount of knowledge, has continued to satisfy his patients with his gastric bypass and body contouring procedures.
