The technique is called SILS or single incision laparoscopic surgery. It’s an innovative way of doing adjustable gastric band surgery — it leaves just a tiny scar.”

Dr McEwen, Indiana Obesity Center, will be selecting a study group of lower BMI patients to participate in Single Incision Bariatric Surgery.  Safer surgical weight loss options is the main focus.  LapBand Indiana continues to lead Indiana in the Adjustable Gastric Banding options for safety.  The program focuses on individual weight loss; therefore, Indiana Obesity Center is a smaller, specialized practice.  If you are looking for personalization, look no farther than Indiana Obesity Center in Carmel Indiana for your weight loss solutions.
