Revisional Weight Loss Surgery
Revisional surgery may be appropriate for patients who have undergone a previous weight loss surgery and are now seeking modifications or adjustments.
Expert Specialists
For people who have already undergone a weight loss surgical procedure, revisions may be desired or required, depending on the situation. Revisional surgeries can take the form of a reversal, a conversion from one surgical approach to a different procedure, or a modification or repair to a prior operation. Each revision case is unique and our expert team can review your history and work with you to evaluate your options.
Our expert team is at the forefront of surgical weight loss procedures and will work with you to identify your weight management goals and preferences to find the best weight loss procedure for you. Following your surgery, we'll also provide you with a lifetime of nutritional and dietary guidance and identify behavioral strategies for success to ensure that you achieve and maintain a healthier life.
At Brigham Health, we are currently taking a comprehensive approach to prevent the spread of infectious diseases while we continue to provide the expert weight management care our patients need. Through Virtual Visits, our team is committed to helping you achieve many of the typical pre-operative steps virtually, while continuing to evaluate and manage your weight loss goals until your surgery can be scheduled.
To schedule a Virtual Visit, watch our short information session below and submit your contact information at the end. A new patient coordinator will then reach out to schedule your Virtual Visit.
