Bariatric Specialists of Western Colorado
Comprehensive Obesity Treatment Center
General Surgeons of Western Colorado have FOUR bariatric surgeons. We are the only group that offers fellowship-trained bariatric surgeons on the Western Slope. This along with the eight other surgeons in the group guarantee that there is always someone available to care for all your bariatric needs. We perform all the accredited weight loss surgeries available and are the only group in Western Colorado with experience in the latest approved procedure, the Loop Duodenal Switch.
We also have extensive experience with revisional surgeries. All of these surgeries are done using minimally invasive techniques either laparoscopically or robotically. We have personal trained in the latest medical weight loss treatments as well to provide you with the greatest weight loss options in Western Colorado.
Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
This type of surgery functions by restricting food intake and decreasing how food is absorbed in the body by creating a small stomach pouch and bypassing the flow of food around the rest of the stomach and straight to the small intestine.
Loop Duodenal Switch
The Loop Duodenal Switch restricts food intake by removing a portion of the stomach which causes you to feel full quickly, and in turn reduces the amount of calories and nutrients the body absorbs from rerouting a portion of the small intestine.
Sleeve Gastrectomy
This procedure decreases the size of the stomach and movement to restrict food intake. This surgery is also called gastric sleeve, vertical gastrectomy, or gastric reduction.
