    Dear Dr. Ramesh.
    Thanks for visiting my blog and your comments.
    Well the results of bariatic procedure are for everyone to see. Lap Gastric bypass has been a gold standard in Bariatric surgery.
    Sleeve gastrectomy is the new darling of all surgeons.
    Iam not very convinced with Lapband though.
    Yes, definitely there are complications with initial few procedures, so make it a point that when you operating a Bariatric procedure please take help of a established Bariatric surgeon for first 5 cases at lest.
    Start with Sleeve gastrectomy.
