The Lap Band Clinic at Oasis of Hope Hospital offers a holistic, high-quality gastric band surgery procedure for the treatment of severe obesity.
The Procedure comprises a series of medical exams, interviews and check-ups in order to assure you the best possible results.
PRE-OP TESTS
Laboratory tests, including blood samles, chest x-ray, EKG, Cardiologist, Psychology, and Nutritionist consults prior to your surgery are included in our Lap Band Surgery package.
Because it is a minimally invasive surgical procedure, the patient normally spends a total of 2 days in the hospital, and can resume their activities and be back at work generally within one week after surgery.
The LBC Program contemplates 2 hospitalization days and 1 five-star hotel night. Patients and doctors will agree what will be the best schedule and arrangement according to the specific care requirements. A companion may share the room with the patient at no extra cost, since all of our rooms are private in which you will find a hospital bed for the patient and a double bed for the companion.
