 Patients who complete our 2 phase treatment program lose an average of 50.5lbs or almost 22% of their initial body weight. That’s the same success as surgical banding!
Our patients learn how to make long-term lifestyle changes. A recent JAMA editorial notes that such changes are critical for effective obesity treatment. (JAMA .2206 295:94-95) |
