Lap-Band, Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy and Gastric Bypass Surgery
Lap Band, Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy and Gastric Bypass surgeries are conducted at our bariatric center conveniently located right off of I-35 in South San Antonio or off I-35 in the downtown San Antonio area. We pride ourselves in providing the best possible outcomes and the choice of facility plays a vital role in the overall success rates. Southwest General Hospital and Metroplitan Methodist Hospital are our two Bariatric Specialty Hospitals, both are ideal facilities for many reasons:
- A surgery-only hospital ensures lower infection rates
- Fast triage if troubles arise as opposed to over-crowded impersonal emergency rooms
- One-stop service for all your weight loss surgery needs
- Unmatched nurse to patient ratios
- Private care
Aside from the choice of facility and choice of surgeon, the next most important variable in your long-term success is a comprehensive aftercare program. This is our proudest asset that we have chosen to deliver to Corpus Christi. Our commitment to you and the community is best demonstrated by our free combination of services that we offer to not only our patients but to all patients.
We specialize in surgical weight loss procedures including:
Our aftercare program includes monthly support groups which we hope grows into weekly group meetings, an online support group and a variety of free guest lectures. We are proud to present you a team approach which is unmatched by any program in the area.
