Lap Band Pre-Op Form
While people may already be familiar with the term LAP-BAND® or Realize Band, oBand has made great strides in carving their own name in the field of bariatric surgery. The term oBand is grounded in and derived from the company mission, which is:
"To promote, encourage and enhance outpatient bariatric surgical care, research and education for the benefit of all patients."
What this means is that oBand is fully committed to bringing the highest level of care possible to its patients. Our service to you goes beyond just the surgical procedure; we are there every step of the way, from the initial contact and introductory seminar to the post surgery follow ups and support. Our complete, comprehensive approach towards bariatric surgery is supported by exceptional doctors and staff, highly regarded certifications and accreditations for the centers, top of the line facilities and equipment, and an extensive weight management program.
Exceptional staff and renowned surgeons
We understand that surgery is a big step and involves making well informed decisions. One of the most important decisions in this process requires patients to have complete confidence in the doctor performing the surgery. oBand understands this crucial requirement and has taken steps to attain the services of top bariatric surgeons. Our surgeons have an average of X years of experience with the lap-band and have performed an average of X lap-band procedures. Dr. Carson Liu, who has over X years of experience and has performed at over X numbers of lap-band procedures, represents the caliber of surgeons we provide at oBand.
The bariatric specific expertise at oBand is not only displayed through our surgeons, but it is exemplified through our staff as well. From the moment you walk into our clinics and surgery centers, you will take notice of the great care given and knowledge shared by the administrators, patient advocates, surgical technicians and nurses.
Accreditations and Certifications
oBand has been granted "Full Approval" and is officially recognized as an "American College of Surgeons Level Outpatient Accredited Bariatric Center." In addition, our staff has been commended by the ACS BSCN and our institution has been recognized for providing high-quality care to our patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Our surgery centers are also accredited by JACHO, which is the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations.
Excellent facilities and equipment
In order to create the best experience for the patient, we want to maximize the ability of our staff and surgeons by providing them with excellent facilities and state of the art equipment. An example of this is the recent acquisition, implementation and use of the da Vinci S HD Surgical System. A major innovation in the medical field, especially in the surgical process, the da Vinci S HD Surgical System combines endoscopy and advanced robotics to perform the most minimally invasive yet highly precise procedure today.
Beyond the Surgical Procedure
As an outpatient facility, we are constantly looking to minimize surgery and recovery time to get you back performing your normal daily activities as soon as possible. While surgery is the most important step in your journey, we understand that the patient's needs reach much farther than just the lap-band procedure itself. oBand has developed a program to meet your needs every step of the way so that you can experience a high level of quality care that is consistent throughout the entire process. By developing a long term relationship with our patients, starting from the initial contact to long after post surgery, we are able to put our mission into action.
