SMITH Northview Hospital is now offering an innovative, safe and effective treatment for morbidly obese adult patients who have repeatedly failed non-surgical weight reduction alternatives.
The adjustable gastric banding procedure is a safe, minimally invasive, adjustable and reversible weight loss surgery. This innovative procedure avoids stomach stapling, rearranging of the intestines, and a lengthy recovery time.
The LAP-BAND® REALIZE™ BAND System serves as a tool to control hunger by limiting food consumption and creating an earlier feeling of fullness without the high risk of nutritional deficiencies associated with the gastric bypass. The adjustability of the LAP-BAND® REALIZE™ BAND System supports each patient's unique weight-loss needs.
If Interested in having the LapBand Procedure, please complete the Patient Information Sheet.

What is the LAP-BAND® System?
The LAP-BAND® Adjustable Gastric Banding System is the first U.S. FDA-approved adjustable gastric band for use in weight reduction. To date, this simple reversible surgically implanted device has been used in more than 300,000 procedures worldwide.
The LAP-BAND® System was approved by the FDA in June 2001 for severely obese adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 40 or more or for people with a BMI of at least 35 plus at least one severe obesity-related health condition such as Type 2 diabetes, hypertension and asthma.

What is the REALIZE® BAND?
The REALIZE® Band provides a safe and effective way to lose weight gradually - without cutting or stapling your stomach. The band limits the amount of food you can eat at one time. As a result, you feel full sooner and stay full longer. That makes it easier to adopt - and stick with - healthy eating and lifestyle habits.
