The surgeons at Southwest Surgical Associates are committed to the care of patients who are struggling with their weight.  Since January of 2004 we have provided surgical care and follow-up for patients undergoing weight loss surgery.  We have successfully partnered with Dixie Regional Medical Center to provide an integrated multidisciplinary team approach to patient care.

    Laparoscopic gastric bypass has been performed since the onset of this program.  As different surgical approaches have been developed, we have incorporated those procedures that we feel have shown significant success in the treatment of this illness.  With this in mind, sleeve gastrectomy and Lap Band surgery have been added to our program.

    With a team approach and careful post-operative care our patients have been able to achieve remarkable success.  We hope this web site will help you to understand the issues involved in this important and life changing event.  We are committed to helping you achieve your goals.
