Teens and Weight Loss Surgery

Gastric bypass surgery has long been a dramatic solution for obese adults, but more doctors are operating on teenagers, too.

Weight Loss Surgery - Reminder

Gastrointestinal weight loss surgery is not an easy weight loss option. It's a serious surgical procedure whose long-term weight loss success depends on a patient's commitment to diet and behavior modification for life, along with exercise for weight control.
