Lap Band Clinical Trials for Low BMI


There was a one page insert in our local newspaper (Sacramento Bee) on Monday the 14th. It was advertising a research study for obese people with bmi's from 30-35. The telephone number to call was 877-303-5264 and the website is Band3035.com
When I clicked on the link, it took me to the website for a very reputable bariatric surgery group. The surgeon locations I found were in northern and southern California. My PCP said last week she had read in one of her Internal Medicine journals about this trial and also one dealing with lap band surgery in obese teenagers. Hope this is useful information!

This is great information. Because there are so many people that gain weight to qualify to get the surgery. It's like applying for finicial aid. If u have a part time job making a little of nothing with not enough to survive it's still too much... But if you dont have a job and don't make anything u will get more.. but u live and sleep on a park bench... Crazy... but this is great info... People that r not that much over weight should not have to gain weight to have this procedure done.
