Fox News reports that in the study, it was discovered that adjustable gastric banding resulted in greater weight loss than Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. However, that's not the end of the story - because gastric banding also led to increased complications. "Our study adds to the confidence that doctors can talk to patients about these procedures," says Dr. David Arterburn, one of the researchers in the study. Though complications are relatively rare, they can occur during weight loss surgery, which is why it is important to settle for nothing less than the best when you're seeking weight loss surgery in Los Angeles. Dr. Feiz can help each patient figure out which bariatric surgery is right for them, as well as giving advice on how to ensure they live a healthy lifestyle.
