What can go wrong during weight loss surgery?
Typically one of two types of claim will be made against a surgeon - either it’s a general surgical complication, or a failure to follow-up. In the case of the latter, an example would be if somebody underwent gastric band surgery and wasn’t made aware of the need to take additional vitamins to make up for the body’s restricted ability to digest food. This lack of knowledge could result in a range of serious complications.
