    Did You know? Studies show that most people are able to keep off 48% - 74% of their excess weight after surgery.

    Did You know? Weight loss surgery can be performed minimally invasive, or laproscopically, through several small incisions.

    Did You know? Many insurance companies will reimburse full or partial cost of weight loss surgery.

    Dear friend,

    Despite hard work and sacrifice, do you find yourself unable to achieve weight loss through traditional diets and exercise? Or have you achieved weight loss success through dieting, but found yourself right back where you started months later? Being overweight or obese takes a toll on your health, your activity level, and your overall quality of life.

    Whether you have been through a rollercoaster of yo-yo diets, or you have been overweight for most of your life, I can help. We offer three highly effective weight loss surgery options: Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass/Roux en Y, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, and LAP-BAND surgery.

    My staff and I have used the LAP-BAND procedure, and other weight loss surgeries, to help over 2000 men and women in the DFW area to achieve dramatic, long-term results. I have been one of only a handful of Dallas' bariatric surgeons to practice the LAP-BAND procedure for over the last nine years.

    Through experience it has become my personal belief that it is very important for patients to be as informed as possible on what weight loss operation entails before deciding if it is the correct solution for him or her. Unlike some centers, at my practice you are not treated like "just a number."

    Feel free to browse our obesity bypass surgery frequently asked questions (FAQs) page to view advice and recommendations for those seeking more information on Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass/Roux en Y surgery and LAP-BAND surgery.


    Thank you for visiting our page. Call our office for information on our free seminars or fill out our online contact form for a consultation, and I will personally meet with you to discuss your options.



    Sincerely,

    Wade Barker M.D.

    Obesity is also a risk factor in higher rates of certain types of cancer, as well as fatty liver disease, vascular disorders, thrombosis, obstructive sleep apnea, musculoskeletal problems and gastroesophageal reflux.

    Did You Know?
    Bariatric surgery is a term derived from the Greek words: 'weight' and 'treatment.' Bariatric surgical procedures are major gastrointestinal operations that (a) seal off most of the stomach to reduce the amount of food one can eat, and (b) rearrange the small intestine to reduce the calories the bodies can absorb.
