Some people recommend it, others don't.

I got a really nice looking one with silver and braided black leather from www.laurenshope.com

Mine has:   Name
                     Gastric Bypass
                     Consult Bariatric Surgeon
                     Before Any Medical Procedure

My doctor recommended an ID bracelet since we don't want someone in the ER shoving a tube down our throats without knowing about our WLS.

The one I have looks like a regular bracelet on one side...did cost some bucks, though.
Height: 5'6" SW: 234

I got mine from this website:
http://gastricbypassbracelets.com/

They have several to choose from.  The one I got looks like a silver bracelet with a heart charm with the information on it.  It wasn't cheap but worth it, to me.  I wanted a cuter one, or I knew I wouldn't wear it!
