140 pounds down, and a whole new life ahead! 💪🔥

Meet Leo Zamarripa! One year after his gastric bypass, he’s down 140 lbs and experiencing life in a completely different way.

His sleep apnea is gone, he can walk longer, run around, stay active, and enjoy the things he couldn’t before.

And when asked what he would tell someone considering surgery? He wishes he had done it sooner!

Leo’s journey is a reminder that bariatric surgery isn’t just about losing weight. It’s about gaining your life back. ❤️

What is an abdominal (ventral) hernia, and how is it repaired with the da Vinci robotic surgical system? 🤔

A ventral hernia occurs when tissue, such as fat or part of the intestine, pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall, creating a bulge that may cause discomfort or pain.

🤖 How does da Vinci robotic-assisted surgery work?
Through small incisions, the surgeon inserts a camera and specialized instruments controlled from a console. The surgeon carefully returns the protruding tissue to its proper position, repairs the weakened abdominal wall, and may reinforce it with surgical mesh when appropriate.

✨ Benefits may include smaller incisions, less postoperative pain, and a faster recovery compared with some open surgical approaches. Outcomes depend on the hernia, the surgical technique, and the individual patient.

The technology assists the surgeon, who remains in control throughout the procedure.

👨‍⚕️ Advanced technology. Precision in every movement.

A gallstone this big!?

Dr. Del Pino shows us just how large a gallstone can become—and what it can look like inside the gallbladder.

Gallstones can cause abdominal pain, nausea, bloating, and other digestive symptoms. When they become symptomatic, surgical treatment may be necessary.

If you’re experiencing recurring abdominal pain, nausea, or digestive symptoms, it may be time to talk to a surgeon.

🩺 ¿Qué es la vesícula biliar y qué pasa cuando aparecen cálculos?

La vesícula biliar es un pequeño órgano que almacena la bilis, un líquido que ayuda a nuestro cuerpo a digerir las grasas. Pero cuando se forman cálculos biliares (piedras), pueden bloquear el flujo de la bilis y provocar dolor, inflamación y otras complicaciones.

En este video, el Dr. Del Pino explica de manera sencilla:
🔹 ¿Cuál es la función de la vesícula?
🔹 ¿Por qué se forman los cálculos/piedras?
🔹 ¿Qué síntomas pueden causar?
🔹 ¿Cuándo es necesario tratar o retirar la vesícula?

👉 Si tienes dolor en la parte superior derecha del abdomen, especialmente despees de comidas grasosas, no lo ignores. Saca cita con el Dr. del Pino llamando al 956-331-8883
