SAMPA surgeons have a long history of working on the cutting edge of surgery. We were the first to perform a laparoscopic adrenalectomy anywhere in the world!

Our specialized services include a full range of

weight loss procedures, breast surgery, acid reflux surgery, and colorectal surgery along with other general surgery procedures. The SAMPA team offers minimally invasive options and robotically assisted surgery for many of the complex procedures we perform meaning decreased risk, smaller scars, and less pain for the patient.

They’re vital for preventing nutrient deficiencies after bariatric surgery. Your nutritional plan is specific to YOU, and it depends entirely on procedure type and your regular lab results.

What is the hardest part of keeping up with your vitamins and what did you do to make it easier? Share your thoughts – you never know who it could help!

Shame won’t solve weight regain.

Regaining weight after surgery is not a failure of willpower. It is often a complex biological response to stress, sleep changes, new medications, grazing, or even untreated reflux. If you are experiencing this, do not hide out of embarrassment. Contact us and let’s do something about it.

There’s someone out there that needs to see this. Share it to help break the stigma.

Which one would you choose: bariatric surgery or chronic obesity?

Many people delay treatment because they are terrified of the operating room. But when you compare the actual medical data, the truth is not what you expect. Living with severe obesity is riskier than undergoing weight loss surgery.

Watch this video to see how the numbers really stack up!

You read the instructions, but are you following them?

Proper wound care and recovery is just as important as the surgery itself. Keep your incision clean, follow your discharge instructions closely, and watch for warning signs. If you develop a fever, green or yellow drainage, spreading redness, or worsening pain, contact your surgical team immediately.

A bulge is not something to ignore.

That weird bulge or ache when you lift something heavy? It’s your body trying to tell you something. Don’t ignore it! Knowing the difference between a hernia you can monitor and a “get to the ER right now” situation can save you a lot of pain. Here is what to look out for! https://sampadocs.com/general-surgery/hernia-surgery/

Pain after fatty meals is a clue.

Ever get an intense ache after a heavy meal and assume it’s just bad indigestion? It might actually be your gallbladder calling for backup. Don’t brush off the discomfort. There are clear warning signs that mean it is time to stop guessing and get evaluated.
