Adjustable Gastric Bands are designed to be adjusted post-operatively. Band fills are an essential part of your treatment. Without adjustments you will not lose weight like you should. As you are losing weight, your abdomen and esophagus will shrink leaving your band loose. Dr. Dobson will increase or decrease the amount of fluid in your band in order to increase or decrease the tension of the band around your stomach/esophagus. To modify the size of the band, its inner surface is inflated or deflated with saline solution. The band is connected by tubing to a reservoir or port, which was placed well under the skin during your surgery. Adjustments or band fills are performed under fluoroscopy, unless requested by the patient and the patients’ port is directly under the skin. NUTRITION, EDUCATION AND SUPPORT PROGRAMS Nutrition is the first step to good health. We take a proactive approach of supplementing all patients via protein drinks, vitamins and IV therapy when necessary. Exercise is an equally important component of your changed lifestyle. Adequate exercise will not only help you in your battle against excess weight, but it will also benefit your general health and well-being. Your size may make it hard for you to exercise as much as you should. But get started. Start with simple exercises, such as walking and swimming. Gradually expand your program to include more vigorous forms of exercise such as cycling, jogging, and aerobics. Services
