A New Life, A New You..
You can have a new life! Now there are options to help you conquer the struggle of obesity and its related diseases and condition. One option is weight-loss surgery, which for many has proven to be the only solution for long-term weight loss.
Weight loss surgery is a serious major step in your life and you should only proceed after you have tried every option available to lose weight. However, because of the serious health problems that come with obesity such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, and even premature death, obesity cannot be ignored.
If you have had a previous RNY gastric bypass and now have weight gain, we are offering a revolutionary new endoscopic procedure called StomaphyX. It can give you a “second chance” with weight loss and help you get your life back on a healthy track.
Another associated problem with obesity is varicose veins. We offer a procedure called the Closure Procedure that is done under local anesthesia in the office setting. The Closure Procedure helps eliminate the pain, swelling and discomfort that varicose veins cause. You don’t have to be obese to suffer from varicose veins and we encourage anyone with this condition to consider this procedure.
For help and guidance with these problems, you must select a surgeon who is highly experienced and has a proven track record in performing these types of surgery and a facility whose staff is thoroughly trained and experienced in the post-operative care of surgery patients. We at Luttrell Surgical Associates believe we are that office.
Rex E. Luttrell, M.D. is thoroughly experienced in Bariatric Surgery techniques. Since 1995, he has performed nearly 1,000 gastric by-pass procedures, but now only does the LAP-BAND® System Procedure. He is certified by the American Board of Surgery and is also a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and a member of the American Society for Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery.
It is our goal to provide you with all the information available to us so you can make an informed decision about one of our weight-loss procedures and the Closure Procedure. If you choose to proceed, it is our personal pledge to you that you will receive the personal care and attention that you deserve.
We have many happy and satisfied patients whose lives have totally been transformed after struggling for years with obesity. Please take a few minutes to read the success stories of some of those patients Dr. Luttrell has been able to help.
Finally, please call our office to schedule a Closure Procedure consultation or reserve a spot at our weekly free Lap-Band seminar. We'll determine if you are a candidate for weight loss surgery or the Closure Procedure for varicose veins. Our office is waiting to help you, but you must make the first step. Call today!
