What is a jLog?

Successful weight loss surgery requires a strong desire to change your life and regain your health. It also requires extensive research to make the choice that’s right for you.

The six people pictured above should know – they are just a few of the thousands of patients who choose gastric bypass surgery every year. They did their homework and got the facts before they decided on Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery at St. Luke’s.

Their research led them to choose our innovative program, which offers four different surgical procedures:

  • Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
  • Gastric band
  • Duodenal switch
  • Sleeve gastrectomy

We respect each individual’s choice, and are committed to their success every step of the way, from pre-surgery counseling to nutritional education to our support groups.  

Together these six have lost more than 750 pounds, as well as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, sleep apnea, diabetes, kidney and liver failure, depression, and more.

They’ve taken charge of their lives, and you can too. If you are considering weight loss – or bariatric – surgery, get the facts for yourself.

Get started on the road to a healthier you today!
