Is the Lap Band Surgery the right option for you? How does it compare to Gastric Bypass? Is it a permanent solution to morbid obesity? All your questions answered by our Lap-Band specialist and Registered nurse, Rhonda Winter.

Did you know that the Lap-Band can put Type 2 Diabetes into remission?
Recent studies have shown that patients with Type 2 Diabetes who use the Lap Band System are more likely to achieve remission of their diabetes versus those who use conventional treatments. In fact, 73% of patients with Type 2 Diabetes achieve remission of their symptoms. This should come as a relief to those nearly 2 million Canadians who are currently suffering with the disease. (1)
