Obesity is not a weight issue; it is a serious medical condition than can lead to major medical issues in the future. With new advancements in technology, patients who are in their teenage years can gain a lot from bariatric surgery.
Bariatric surgery in Dallas is a safe a proven method for helping teenage and adult patients (http://www.drdirkweightloss.com/am-i-a-candidate/teens-and-adolescents). While some surgeries such as the Lap Band and Gastric Bypass have been researched and performed on teenagers, the Sleeve Gasterctomy is a surgery that Dr. Dirk Rodriguez and most surgeons will not perform because it has not been researched and therefore will not be recommended for patients.
Dr. Rodriguez has performed obesity surgery in Dallas for teenagers and young adults, giving him the experience and knowledge to truly help patients with this condition. All of the surgery options performed by Dr. Rodriguez are done laparoscopically, which means with very small incisions, allowing patients to have less pain and a faster healing process.
