Surgeons at Tufts-New England Medical Center will perform the "gold standard" for treating obesity during a live Webcast December 6th, at 6:30 p.m. EST.

Dr. Scott Shikora, Chief of Bariatric Surgery at Tufts-NEMC and Surgical Director of the Medical Center's comprehensive Obesity Consultation Center, along with bariatric surgeons Dr. Michael Tarnoff and Dr. Julie Kim, will perform the surgery. Tufts-NEMC was the first medical center in New England to do the gastric bypass surgery using minimally invasive techniques. The Medical Center's surgeons remain the most experienced in the region, with outcomes more favorable than the national average.

  • diet and exercise, man. Would've done the same thing for a lot less money.

  • there is no surgery without risks. But in my case the benefits outweighed the risks, and with a nice minus 56kg now, I am doing way better!

  • Good luck to all; however, you look too thin dude and a little like death. My friend went through with this proceedure and died due to complications.

  • Good on you's I'm going through the same process and have lost 50kgs hopefully I'll now reach retirement age.

  • they both look great
