How Long Does Vsg Operation Take?

Assuming no complications or hernia issues....thanks!

With gallbladder removal it was about 1.5 hours. No complications- I believe my VSG only took about 45 minutes. It was the gallbladder that took the extra time.

My surgeon said around an hour. He does it laparoscopically and with the DaVinci robot.

Mine told me anywhere from 45 mins up to two hours, however mine only took about 45 minutes. It was done laparascopically.

Mine took about 2 hrs...but I had a hernia repair & a liver biospsy...also had some enlarged blood vessels that he had to take his time around. Better safe than sorry. But normally it should take about an hour!!

My doc says 1.5-2 hours. He also does a liver biopsy and uses DaVinci. I'm having my gallbladder removed as well, so I'm assuming I'll be towards the 2 hour mark.
