The bariatric leader of Colorado's western slope.

Montrose Lap Band offers a comprehensive weight loss surgery program to help severely overweight people lose weight, improve their health, and live longer, happier lives. Our surgeon, licensed dietitian, clinic staff, and patient advocates are dedicated to understanding the unique needs of our bariatric patients and to helping them reach their goals.

Patients For Life
Because long-term follow-up care is critical for the long-term success of weight loss surgery patients, we consider our patients to be “patients for life.” We are committed to serving patients locally and over the long-term so that we can address any issues that arise after surgery and monitor your health in the years to come.

The LapBand procedure has become the primary weight loss operation in the world with over 350,000 LapBand surgeries performed worldwide. It will soon overtake the Roux-Y Gastric Bypass as the most common weight loss operation in the United States. The Gastric Band is placed around the top part of your stomach creating a small gastric pouch. Thus, the Band will limit the quantity of food that you will be able to eat (restrictive component only), resulting in a slow, gradual and more healthy way to lose weight. Your digestion remains the same, so there is low risk of malnutrition. It is adjustable, easily reversible, and the safest weight loss surgery available. Long-term weight loss is statistically comparable to the Gastric Bypass.
