General Weight Loss Surgery

If you’re like most people considering weight loss surgery around Dallas, Arlington, or Fort Worth, you have battled with your weight for years. You have tried countless diet and exercise programs—you’ve even lost a lot of weight in the past—but you just can’t keep off the pounds.

The good news is, you’re not alone. Millions of Americans struggle with obesity, a disease that can not only affect your emotional well-being, but also pose serious risks to your health. We understand your fears and frustrations, and we can help you overcome obesity and live a longer, healthier life through weight loss surgery.

Dr. Jason Harrison, located in the Dallas Forth Worth Arlington area, specializes in the LAP-BAND® procedure, a minimally invasive laparoscopic operation that can foster rapid weight loss and resolve life-threatening health issues. He also performs sleeve gastrectomy surgery, which permanently divides the stomach, reducing the volume it can hold. If you choose either the LAP-BAND® or gastric sleeve procedure, our staff will work with you to develop lifestyle solutions that, when combined with our surgical options, can result in meaningful and long term success.

Nothing worthwhile in life comes easy, including weight loss, and the LAP-BAND® procedure is a life-long commitment. Our staff will stick by you every step of the way, and help you find the inner strength to be successful. Call us today to schedule a consultation about weight loss surgery in the Dallas Fort Worth Arlington area, or come to one of our free informational seminars to meet Dr. Harrison and our welcoming staff in the Dallas Fort Worth Arlington area.
