"This is a fantastic effort by the authors and great resource for the intended audience. Having this breadth of information in a single manual offers readers all the information needed to start a successful, safe, and well-run bariatric practice. The addition of the SAGES Masters information in this edition only serves to increase its relevance and value." (Peter Nau, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2018)
