Dallas Bariatric Surgeon, Dr. Fox and Team

Advanced Lap Band Surgery’s goal is to treat patients the way we would like to be treated ourselves. We offer brief waiting periods, prompt return of your telephone calls and emails, strict confidentiality, and honest answers to your questions. Above all, there is an atmosphere of warmth and caring throughout our office.

Personal attention, availability, and quality care with state of the art services are our utmost priorities. You can be assured of a complete description of available choices and options tailored to meet your individual needs.

Our mission is to provide the highest quality program possible. Our strengths include:

Great Outcomes
Our greatest strength is our excellent outcomes. Dr. Fox has performed hundreds of Lap Band® procedures with a very low complication rate, no deaths, and excellent long term weight loss results.

Education and Support
Because long term success after weight loss surgery depends on establishing and maintaining good eating and exercise habits, our comprehensive program stresses pre-operative education and continued post-operative support.

High Patient Satisfaction
Our strongest advocates are the patients we have treated and cared for. We appreciate the trust and confidence placed in our program by our patients and their families. Your recommendation to others is the highest compliment we can receive.

Board Certified

Dallas bariatric surgeon, Dr. Fox is certified by the American Board of Surgery and is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (F.A.C.S.). This is the highest recognition that your doctor has specialized knowledge and training related to the pre-operative evaluation and diagnosis, operative technical skills/ability and post-operative management of surgical problems. It is also just as important to know when not to operate and treat with a medical nonsurgical approach – some of the best surgery is nonsurgical! At the same time, if an operation is indicated, good judgment is necessary to recommend the appropriate operation for the individual that will give the best results.
