The NEW Program at Community Hospital of Long Beach is a comprehensive surgical weight loss program embodying three principles: Nutrition, Exercise and Wellness. Our advanced surgical weight loss program is nationally recognized for its multidisciplinary team approach to weight loss and comprehensive post-operative lifestyle management training and support program.
If you are struggling with obesity, The NEW Program at Community Hospital of Long Beach offers permanent weight loss solutions, such as: Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass; Gastric Banding, (Lap-Band System® and Realize™ Personalized Banding Solution) and the gastric sleeve procedure which is an excellent surgical weight loss procedure. The gastric sleeve can be used in any patient who qualifies for bariatric surgery and also for selected patients with a smaller amount of weight to lose who are not candidates for a gastric bypass. All procedures are done using minimally invasive (laparoscopic) techniques.
We also offer StomaphyX,™ a remarkable new technology that can be used to re-tighten a gastric bypass, and improve the results of other bariatric operations, without “surgery.” By reviewing the information on our Web Site on safe and effective surgical weight loss procedures, you have taken an important step in gaining control of your life.
Our prestigious weight loss surgeons (Brian Quebbemann, MD, FACS and Justin Braverman, MD, FACS) and The NEW Program medical and support professionals have helped thousands of men and women from throughout the United States to safely lose significant amounts of weight. With more than 2000 laparoscopic gastric bypass surgeries and gastric banding procedures performed, our bariatric surgeons are exceptionally qualified and skilled. The NEW Program surgeons have been recognized as a "Center of Excellence" in bariatric care from the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery.
