Located in Mississauga, just west of Toronto, LapBandŽ surgery specialists at
The Surgical Weight Loss Centre have an effective solution for the ongoing battle with obesity.
The Lap-BandŽ surgery procedure has given new hope to patients who have unsuccessfully tried diet, exercise, and ineffective weight loss supplements.
Lap-Band surgeons Doctor Chris Cobourn and Doctor David Mumford are highly qualified surgeons who specialize in laparoscopic surgery to insert an FDA-approved LAP-BANDŽ System in the upper area of the stomach. The LAP-BANDŽ System works by controlling the amount of food that travels from the newly created small stomach pouch to the larger portion of the stomach.
Patients of the Lap BandŽ operation usually maintain a stable, gradual weight loss of an average of 0.5-0.9 kilos per week. Many doctors and surgeons now use the Lap Banding procedure because its effectiveness has been proven with over 10 years of academic review and studies.
Unlike stomach stapling, intestinal rerouting and partial stomach removal, Lap Banding is adjustable, reversible, has minimal scarring due to small incisions, and dramatically reduces recovery time.
