This page is a portal that will allow weight loss surgery patients or prospective candidates for weight loss procedures go through some of the education involved in preparation for laparoscopic band surgery, laparoscopic gastric bypass, or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. 

If you are currently a patient involved in our practice and have seen Dr. Balder, he will at some point in the process ask you to view the education module involved in your proposed surgery.  There are no fees associated with this process whatsoever.  Please enjoy the brief ride through either the laparoscopic band education, the laparoscopic GBP education, the laparoscopic sleeve education or any combination of the above! 

If you are a prospective patient or just seeking more information about one of these procedures or our practice, you too can enter the education portal.  Feel free to start any or all of the education modules free of charge.  Simply signup as a new member above. 

Lastly, if you have been through before and want to revisit any of the education modules, please do so as an existing member login.
