Obesity is a hazard that impairs and puts at hazard the lives of hundreds of thousands of people throughout the United States. It has also given birth to a multi-billion dollar industry addressing the problems of obesity through legions of diet books, programs, exercises, equipment, medication, and surgeries. That's why "Outpatient Weight-Loss Surgery: Safe And Successful Weight Loss With Modern Bariatric Surgery" by Dr. Kent Sasse (a nationally recognized authority on surgical weight-loss procedures) is such a welcome and addition to personal community library Health & Medicine reference collections. Dr. Sasse provides the reader with an informed and comprehensive guide to every aspect of bariatric surgery including what it is, how it works, recovery, and appropriate follow-up. Of special note is what Dr. Sasse advises on avoiding common problems such as leakage, dehydration, and ulceration. Simply stated, "Outpatient Weight-Loss Surgery" is critically important and highly recommended reading for anyone considering the option of bariatric surgery as a medical response to their condition of morbid obesity.
