Watch a Live Weight Loss Surgery!

Dr. Paul Cirangle MD, FACS, FASMBS



On Saturday May 19th 8 :00 AM Dr. Paul Cirangle from Laparoscopic Associates in San Francisco will perform a *LIVE* bariatric surgery (weight loss surgery) which will be transmitted in real time to Las Vegas during the WLSFA’s Third Annual Mother of all Meet and Greets. The Surgical procedure that Dr. Cirangle will be performing is the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy or VSG. The “Sleeve” as some call it, is quickly becoming the favored choice among those considering weight loss surgery.

The sleeve gastrectomy procedure, commonly referred to as the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy, vertical gastrectomy or simply the sleeve, is a newer restrictive procedure where the majority of the stomach is removed leaving a long tubular structure from the esophagus to the small intestine.

Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy is not as common as other bariatric surgeries but it is quickly gaining in popularity.
Attendees who choose to attend this once in a lifetime opportunity will gather in the “OR Gallery” to witness and be part of the surgery. Dr. Cirangle will take questions from the attendees and audience and narrate the procedure step-by-step as it is performed. It will also be broadcast on the WLSFA.ORG web site. Tune in for additional details, as there are some very special surprises in store for participants!
