Our Bariatric Surgery Team Brian B. Quebbemann, MD, FACS
Dr. Quebbemann's integrated approach led to the ongoing, progressive development of a comprehensive interventional weight control center that is the foundation of The N.E.W. Program. Since opening the laparoscopic bariatric program in 2000, he has completed hundreds of minimally invasive bariatric procedures, with less than a one percent rate of conversion to open surgery and an amazing track record of excellent weight loss and minimal complications. The mortality rate, to date, is zero (no deaths). His surgical practice, CALSURG (Center for Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery), has been actively involved in the FDA trials for The Lap-Band System®, and is participating in ongoing studies involving improvements in clinical patient care and technology design. The N.E.W. Program design is recognized in the bariatric industry as one of the most complete bariatric surgery program designs and is the foundation for The N.E.W. Program, Inc. Dr. Quebbemann currently serves on the Insurance Committee of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery. He is a diplomat of the American Board of Surgery and a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. Dr. Quebbemann is the President and CEO of The N.E.W. Program, Inc. and Surgical Director of CALSURG, Center for Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery. More Information If you’d like more information on the N.E.W.
