Date:1/22/2008

physically and mentally prepared for surgery, notes Matt Kirkland, MD, Medical Director of Pennsylvania Hospitals Bariatric Surgery program.

Pennsylvania Hospitals experienced surgeons are well-versed in both laproscopic (minimally-invasive) and open surgeries, and perform the latest, most-advanced bariatric surgery procedures, including LAP-BAND and roux-en-y gastric bypass surgery.

In becoming a Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence, the program has held itself to the highest standards in the industry and is recognized for its dedication to helping patients achieve their lifestyle and weight loss goals.
