Gastric Banding surgery is a tried and proven procedure for treating the seriously overweight – those whose weight is at least 60% greater than their ideal weight or whose weight is adversely affecting their day to day health and well-being (BMI of 35 or more).
A morbidly obese person has twice as much chance of premature death as a person with a normal body weight. The procedure is quick, safe and is supported by a team of professionals to achieve long-term sustained weight loss without rigorous dieting and exercise routines.
