    LI Obesity Surgery LI Obesity Surgery (LIOS) was founded by the highly-esteemed bariatric surgeon, David Buchin, MD, FACS, FASMBS. Recognized as a leader in bariatric surgery, Dr. Buchin and the LI Obesity Surgery team have the distinction of being the first in the New York area to perform the OverStitch Endoscopic Suturing System for revisional weight loss surgery. Under the guidance of Dr. Buchin, we are the first in Long Island to have performed the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy. As a Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP), LI Obesity Surgery offers a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to the surgical treatment of obesity. We have a compassionate and warm environment where your care and health are first and foremost, and your weight loss goals are a priority to us. Weight Loss Surgery at LI Obesity Surgery Welcome to our Center and congratulations on taking the next step toward long-term weight loss success and a healthy lifestyle.

He specializes in conversions of a Lap-Band to a Vertical Sleeve or a Gastric Bypass, Vertical Sleeve revisions as Re-Sleeve Gastrectomies or conversion of the Sleeve to a Gastric Bypass or Modified Duodenal Switch, and laparoscopic revisions of the Gastric Bypass Pouch and limb lengthening procedures. We offer non-surgical procedures including Gastric Balloon procedures. Dr. Buchin and the LI Obesity Surgery are currently one of the few bariatric centers in Long Island to offer the Enterra Gastric Pacemaker for Gastroparesis, which is essentially a gastric pacemaker. In addition to bariatric surgery procedures, we also perform advanced laparoscopic general surgery procedures including Colectomy, Esophagectomy, Adrenalectomy, Splenectomy, Paraesophageal Hernia Repair, Nissen Fundoplication, Cholecystectomy, and Distal Pancreatectomy.
