Laparoscopic Upper GI and Bariatric Surgeon Brisbane

Dr Ben Dodd is a Brisbane born and trained Laparoscopic Upper GI and Bariatric Surgeon. He performs large volumes of anti-reflux and bariatric procedures, in addition to gallbladder and hernia repair surgery. Dr Dodd is motivated by great surgical outcomes and the transformation of patients’ lives through safe weight loss surgery. He ensures patients have the best surgical experience through a strong focus on attention to detail and Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). Ben believes strongly in the resilience and ability of all weight loss surgery patients to succeed in losing 100% of their excess weight, thereby restoring their healthspan, through a process of subtle, sensible lifestyle change over time.

The practice provides non-judgemental, high quality patient information and evidence based surgical management of weight excess, reflux, gallbladder and hernia diseases.
