  • She was 31 years old when she attended one of the free information sessions offered by the program. “People my age don’t always realize that they can be candidates for weight loss surgery,” Melanie says. “Going to the orientation meetings and seeing people of different ages, you learn it can be for almost anyone.” Melanie is quick to point out that weight loss surgery is neither a quick nor an easy fix. Another favorite new–and somewhat ironic—activity is cooking. “Before my surgery I only ate takeout. I think it’s important to do the weight surgery for yourself and not for someone else. These sessions offer a great opportunity to learn more about weight loss surgery options and ask questions.

  • When you talk to Marc Olbash about the results of his weight loss surgery at North Shore Medical Center, the numbers make a big impression. Despite the dramatic results, the Lynn resident is quick to point out that bariatric surgery a gastric bypass in Marc’s case, performed by bariatric surgeon Jaime Rivera, M.D. is not the “easy fix” he used to think it was. “That’s the largest misconception,” he explains. “The surgery is an aid. His post-surgery to-do list is long, but his main focus right now is pursuing a degree in nursing.

  • Back in Motion: Spinal Lumbar Surgery Helps Salem Resident Maintain Active Lifestyle This type of non-surgical treatment, she adds, can be maintained for extended periods of time—sometimes even years—before surgery becomes necessary. “But surgery is the only way to address the underlying problem, which is the pressure on the nerves,” says Dr. Pajela. After four months, Korumpas decided to move forward with surgery. More than 80 percent of all patients who have this type of surgery will experience a significant improvement in their function and a markedly reduced level of pain and discomfort.

  • Building on its tradition of surgical excellence, NSMC is preparing to launch a Robotic Surgery Program at its Salem Hospital campus. Supported by a $1 million challenge grant from the Davenport Fund, the program will be the only one of its kind on the North Shore. “Adding robotic surgery to NSMC is an exciting advance for our facility and our patients,” says Marc S. Rubin, M.D., Chair of Surgery at NSMC. Andrews expects that NSMC will acquire a robot this summer and begin using it for urologic and prostate cancer surgeries, as well as ear, nose and throat procedures in the fall of 2018. During robot-assisted surgery, a highly trained surgeon operates robotic arms while seated at a computer console that provides high-definition, magnified and 3-D views of the surgical site. “The robot is a remote extension of the surgeon’s own hands but its instrumentation enables finer access, maneuverability and technical precision,” says Rubin. Other advantages of robotic surgery include smaller incisions, reduced pain and discomfort, and faster recovery for patients.

  • Suffering from Type II diabetes and already on insulin, Miller met with Frederick Buckley, M.D., a surgeon who specializes in bariatric weight loss surgery at North Shore Medical Center, to see what his options were. Miller decided on a minimally invasive, laparoscopic gastric bypass and within four days after the surgery his diabetes had improved so much he no longer needed an insulin pump. His results from the surgery were so good, his wife Martha, 34, started looking into it too. At 265 pounds, she knew her health was at risk. “I was very reluctant for a long time,” explained Martha. “I was borderline diabetic, my blood pressure was up and I finally said to myself, ‘I have to do this now before it’s too late.’” Martha met with Dr. Buckley in September 2007 and he performed the same minimally invasive, laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery. To date, Martha has lost more than 90 pounds, and her weight is still dropping. “This surgery is just one tool to help you control one aspect of being heavy—how much you can eat.
