Obesity Surgery On the Rise

The long-term success of obesity surgery is dependent on having a multidisciplinary team of professionals who work together with the goal of providing safe and effective weight-loss strategies.

This reflects both the ability of obesity surgical procedures to provide a solution to an otherwise insoluble condition, and also reflects changing public attitudes and overall acceptance of what was once considered quite extreme.
