Patient Reviews
Dear Dr. Fee,
Just a note to share with you and your staff. I have made it 10 years cancer free. Thank you for your care 10 years ago. You and your staff really took the lead in my care and treatment. You made a big difference and I still think for as hard as breast cancer is to handle as a patient, you all made it easy as it could be. text books may not say that I am “cured” but I believe I am. Thank you for all the extra years.

With Orbera®, while you are under anesthesia, a deflated gastric balloon is inserted through the mouth and into the stomach. Next, the balloon is inflated with sterile saline to roughly the size of a grapefruit. The balloon remains in the patient’s stomach for six months. Due to the size of the balloon, the patient will gradually begin to adjust to eating smaller, healthier portion sizes. In six months, the procedure is reversed and the balloon is removed in the same manner as described with a camera that goes through the mouth and then into the stomach while you are under anesthesia.
With Orbera®, patients have been able to lose three times more weight than by diet and exercise alone. Over 400,000 gastric balloons have been distributed worldwide through Orbera® and hundreds of thousands of people have been able to achieve and maintain their weight loss goals.

One Year of Comprehensive Coaching and Support
Orbera® Coach combines the portion-controlling benefits of a gastric balloon with comprehensive coaching to change your eating habits, enhance your physical fitness, and help you adopt a healthy lifestyle that supports long-term success. While the balloon is inside your stomach, you will have a monthly one-on-one session with a registered dietician coach as well as monthly group sessions. You will receive personalized nutrition, fitness, and behavior guidance to help maximize your success.
Once the balloon is removed, you will continue to meet with your dietician coach to make sure that you maintain your healthy lifestyle to reach your goals. With ongoing coaching support, most patients maintain their weight loss or continue to lose weight.
Patients also have access to the Orbera® mobile app, a comprehensive tool that has everything you need to track your success. The portal includes weight logging, a unique picture-based food diary, activity tracking, goal setting, articles and recipes, community forums, important reminders, and the ability to easily share data with your doctor.
