Palmyra Medical Center announced that the Bariatric Institute of Southwest Georgia has been named a Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence.

The institute has conducted over 900 lap band surgeries since it started in 2002.  The hospital had to make sure they were equipped and knowledgeable on the bariatric patient and the special needs.

Palmyra expects the volume of people who are interested in lap band surgery to increase dramatically.
