Floyd Memorial Weight Management Center Offers Free Gastric Banding Seminars
August 5th, 2008
The Floyd Memorial Weight Management Center, specializing in both surgical and non-surgical weight loss options, will offer free informational seminars on the new Realize Personalized Banding Solution. Presented by Board-Certified General Surgeon Ashley Lankford, M.D., FACS, the seminars will be held one Tuesday evening and Saturday morning per month.
The minimally invasive Realize band procedure involves placing a flexible, adjustable band around the upper portion of the stomach, creating a small pouch for minimal food intake. Most patients lose approximately 50 percent of their excess weight in the first year.
