We deliver more care than most sources

...for weight control resolutions.  What do we mean by "care?"  Surgery is not our first solution.  Dr. Simpson's book "Losing the Last 30 LBS" is the perfect guide to setting and achieving weight reduction goals.  Before a surgical solution, we recommend applying simple fundamental principles in this book.  Dr. Simpson's years of scientific research and experience results in a manual for healthy living that is complete yet concise providing the easiest path to results.

Dr. Simpson and associates connect with patients

We stay involved in each patient's continued success in creating goals for results at an unparalleled level.  When we work with patients, we study and document their successes.  We learn first hand from our patients and apply that knowledge to develop new methods and approaches that work and are not available anywhere else.

Finding the best doctor for you is important

How do you determine a doctor’s ability?  How do you know their experience results in knowledge and capability?  How do you know they care?  A good doctor's ability grows with knowledge they gain from every case and their research.  How can you “see” ability and evidence they do research?  With a typical doctor, you must rely on reputation.  How do you assess reputation?

A good caring doctor studies results

...and from them develops treatment methods that enables success for all of their patients.  They continuously improve and apply great treatment to each and every patient.  A great doctor gives patients information that creates understanding about treatments so they make informed choices and optimize results.  The informed patient understands their condition and treatment options, how to prepare for treatment, and  what to do after treatment to sustain healthy results.

How does a great doctor make this level of information available

...to people?  Every way possible!  Books, websites, seminars, support groups, classes, email, and direct contact by phone - because Dr. Simpson cares, he tries to make himself one of the most accessible doctors you will ever know.  Dr. Simpson attends seminars and support groups!  Dr. Simpson makes ALL the information you need to end your weight control struggle more available to you.

Morbid Obesity can destroy your ability to enjoy life

It can limit your mobility, making it difficult for you to keep up with your friends and less able to enjoy simple pleasures like playing with your kids or grandchildren.  It will shorten your life.  Have you ever seen an 80 year old person who needs to lose 80 pounds? - you won't!  Can your quality of life be improved with weight loss?  We can't answer that.  But we do have the surgical solution and follow up programs to help you succeed with weight loss.

If you have been defeated in honest committed efforts

...to control your weight, it may be time to consider a surgical option to decrease the ravages of obesity to your health.  Being unable to control your body can be frightening and embarrassing.  Add to this fear of almost certain health consequences.  Top it off with fearful considerations of surgery.  People can find themselves frozen with fear unable to act.

Dr. Simpson prefers Adjustable Lap-band Surgery

...the latest and most safe surgery for weight loss. The Adjustable Laparoscopic Band, as its name implies, is inserted through small "keyhole" incisions and is the least invasive method.  Unlike other methods, there are no other surgical modifications to your digestive system.  Everything remains as you were created. The ONLY difference is the Laparoscopic Band device that causes your stomach capacity to become smaller.

The Lap-band is adjustable to make you feel full with less food!

That is the unique advantage to this procedure.  The upper part of your stomach is where the satiety center is, it tells your brain that you are full after eating a large meal.  The lap-band fits below this center so you feel full eating less food.  The band can be opened more, returning your system to normal, or tightened more, keeping food in the satiety center longer.  Eat less without increasing your appetite.

Pregnancy increases nutritional needs

...and may require a woman to eat more than the Lap-band will allow.  A prospective mother’s enhanced need for nourishment can be fulfilled by adjusting the lap-band to be less constrictive.  This is a great reason to have an Adjustable Lap-band.  After the baby is delivered, the lap-band can be adjusted to again facilitate weight loss.  This can be done in the office, with no surgery.

Consider the facts

Unlike other surgeries, this procedure is adjusted to your unique system and life’s circumstances, greatly reducing the possibility of failure.  This procedure does not modify your digestive system except by keeping food in the upper part of your stomach to keep you satisfied.  Laparoscopic procedures are the least invasive and have been used for years in surgery.  The operation for the Lap-band typically takes an hour.

Have you ever wished you could relive your life?

Because what you know now would cause you to have made better choices.  Usually you can’t go back but with weight loss surgery you start anew.  Did you know that if you ate one teaspoon of sugar less per meal you could have avoided gaining ten pounds in a year?  Weight loss surgery isn't magic, it is a tool a tool that only works if you change your lifestyle.

Dr. Simpson’s workbook “Getting to Goal and Staying There”

...simplifies required lifestyle changes in exercise and diet.  It will show you how to measure for success and how to change your thinking about food.  It includes numerous recipes and menu plans and a food planner which will help you track your food and calorie intake.  It is a bible for new post-op patients and a core tool in Dr. Simpson’s support groups but can be used by anyone and any support group to understand and maintain a thin person’s lifestyle.

Weight loss surgery is only the beginning

...of a new and exciting journey.  It is not an end in itself.  Our job is to make that journey a success.  We can help you with that because we have spent years learning the secrets of the successful patient - those who lost their excess weight and kept it off.  It doesn't matter what type of surgery you had -- RNY, lap band, or duodenal switch - or if you had the operation a week ago, years ago, or are going to have the operation in the future, or plan on losing weight without surgery.

Surgery is not a guarantee of weight loss

Surgery is simply a tool to help you lose weight.  If you use the tool properly, it will assist you by making you feel full with less food intake.  One of our goals is to help you use that tool, and we know how -- remember that  we have studied successful patients for years and have discovered their secret.  You are not alone -- we can help you.
