The Surgical Weight Loss Centre
Excess weight can feel like an albatross, dragging you down physically, emotionally and spiritually. It can negatively affect your health and your self esteem, causing you to shy away from social events.
The Surgical Weight Loss Centre gives new hope to patients suffering from obesity, especially those with a BMI greater than 35 or with a BMI above 30 and the presence of weight related health issues.
We are Canada's leading clinic specializing in Gastric Balloon and Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Band surgery (Lap-Band Surgery) for obese people.
- Fully accredited independent health care facility
- Advanced bariatric surgery equipment & patient monitoring systems

Lap-Band surgery is minimally invasive, adjustable and, if desired, reversible. It limits food intake, reduces appetite, reduces fat and maintains muscle mass for safe and effective weight loss.
- Lap-Band Adjustable Gastric Band - the only US FDA approved gastric banding device
- More than 300,000 bands implanted worldwide since 1996
- Safe & effective alternative to gastric bypass surgery
- Minimal Scarring
Bariatric surgery to implant the Lap-Band is usually performed on an outpatient basis. Most of our patients are discharged within a few hours after their surgery and recovery is normally one week or less. Our comprehensive long-term follow up program is administered by a team of experienced surgeons and clinical nurse specialists to help ensure your success.
