Dr. Terushkin specializes in minimally invasive and bariatric surgery having graduated a fellowship at Cleveland Clinic. He uses cutting edge technology and individualized patient care. A few of his most commonly performed procedures include laparoscopic gastric banding, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, laparoscopic gallbladder surgery, laparoscopic and open hernia repair, and removal of lipomas and cysts. He is a member of the American College of Surgeons and the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgeons. Dr. Terushkin regularly attends meetings for various professional societies in order to stay current. While there are a number of non surgical diet plans available, bariatric surgery, whether it’s gastric bypass, lap band surgery or sleeve gastrectomy, produces the best results for achieving long-term success. Bariatric Surgery Can Effectively Treat Type 2 Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, and Sleep Apnea. Bariatric surgery has been documented as reducing premature death rates and improving, if not curing, the co-morbidities (other related illnesses) associated with being obese. We’ve also seen improvement with arthritis general pain, mobility, asthma, infertility, and lymphedema. If you are ready to experience the benefits of bariatric surgery for yourself and to take the first steps on a path to a healthy lifestyle, start by attending one of our free seminars, or call us.
