<\/a><\/p>\nBariatric surgery is considered a low risk surgery, but in order to keep it so there are many factors that must be addressed to maintain risks at bay and to make success possible. If you don\u2019t take those factors into account when choosing where to have your operation your results may well be the opposite of what you want.<\/p>\n
In what type of facilities will you procedure be performed? <\/strong><\/p>\n There are doctors all over the world that will only perform bariatric surgery in facilities that are appropriate and modern and that offer the services and have the staff needed for an integrative process for their patient. But unfortunately, there are also those that use an assembly line system; move newly operated patients to other locations to recover; send them home without a follow up plan and that do not bother to comply with the standards of hygiene, technology, ecology and training necessary to perform a safe and successful procedure.<\/p>\n The facility where your operation will be performed should be equipped with everything needed to handle any emergency and its staff must be highly and constantly trained. Never be embarrassed to ask your doctor about the characteristics of its facilities, professional associations they are affiliated to and the training of the staff. If you find resistance from your doctor or from any member of the staff or if you detect any inconsistencies, head to the door without hesitation and look for another doctor.<\/p>\n Does the surgeon have a multidisciplinary staff?<\/strong><\/p>\n It is important to remember that for bariatric surgery to be safe and provide long-term results, the dedicated work of an entire team is essential, it is not just about the work of the surgeon; patients need guidance and support in the phases before and after surgery in such important areas as psychology, nutrition and physical activity.<\/p>\n Experience of medical team<\/strong><\/p>\n Bariatric surgery is still surgery! The fact that your friend told you that she could walk the same day of her surgery and that she was home a day later should not, by any means, make you think that it\u2019s like having a tooth pulled, which in any case also requires special care. Bariatric surgery is major surgery, which you can certainly recover quite quickly from, but which demands major changes in all aspects of your life to give you the best possible results.<\/p>\n It is of vital importance that you entrust your care to a medical team that is experienced and certified in the most current bariatric procedures; that can provide a long list of testimonials from patients and offers you a comprehensive program, clear and defined, detailing every step of your process.<\/p>\n Does it feel right?<\/strong><\/p>\n After your initial consultation, take a quiet moment and ask yourself this all important question: \u201cdoes it feel right?\u201d Pay attention to your instincts, to the trust the doctor inspires in you and how comfortable you feel in the facilities; also pay close attention to the subtleties of your feelings and the first impressions that you get from the doctor, the medical team and facilities.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Many of the consultations we offer in LIMARP are for patients who have had unsuccessful bariatric surgery; be it that they presented serious complications afterwards or that they simply did not receive the procedure that was appropriate for their particular case.
