Itstime

Dr Aceves is a Fellow in the American College of Surgeons, which means his credentials are verified and outstanding. He has performed over 600 VSG surgeries, with more than 18 years experience doing laparoscopic surgery, and over 10 years experience performing bariatric surgery. You can read more about his qualifications at Bariatric Surgeon Profile - Alberto Aceves M.D., F.A.C.S. Most of the surgeons in the USA who perform the VSG don't have even half the experience that he has. It is VERY important to know that the research supports the fact that after the surgeon has performed over 300 of the procedure you are having, your chance of having a serious complication goes way down. I would not let anyone cut on me unless they meet those standards. Most US surgeons have NOT done 300 VSGs
