Dr. Dahiya:
And over the years, you know, we were trained, even from the days of residency, we cut and sew the bowel. So, it’s not that much difference. Personally, in my practice, I do band, bypass; I haven’t seen that much difference to the complication and that may go contrary to what’s being on the television, the ads, the commercials and all that, but again, I am going on my experience. There is not that much difference in the complication.
