Dr. Alfredo Fernández specializes in laparoscopic weight loss surgery. He performs both: gastric bypass surgery and REALIZE Band.
The Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass is the weight loss surgery of choice for Dr. Fernández and is "the gold standard of weight loss surgery". Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass is endorsed by the American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery and the National Institutes of Health as the preferred procedure for patients suffering from morbid obesity.
Featuring both restrictive and malabsorptive components to the surgery, it offers the best long term weight loss and safety and is well documented in numerous studies as having the best results over other purely restrictive procedures such as gastric banding.
Dr. Alfredo Fernández is also a general surgeon who performs hundreds of surgeries every year. For more information about general surgery services please contact our office.
