The various conservative therapeutic approaches to this condition, although all effective, are also characterized by their short life, their lack of sustained results.

For those qualified, the surgical treatment on the other hand has not only guaranteed a lasting effect but it has also impacted quite favorably on their co-morbid conditions: Hypertension, Diabetes, Coronary Artery Disease and others, by correcting them or by facilitating their management.

The most popular procedure in the US for Morbid Obesity is the Roux-en-Y Gastric By pass, introduced already in the South Jersey area by various groups, providing the Open Standard Technique.

The Echelon Bariatric Group is pleased indeed to offer this option of a “Laparoscopic approach” which has been better tolerated, with less invasion, less post operative complication, less discomfort, and also most sought by patients.

Our experience as well as those reported in the medical literature has been very supportive of these claims.

Echelon Bariatric invites you to consider this alternative, right in the South Jersey area, in order to avoid you any trip to Philadelphia or New York.
