Greetings kathe1234-

There is no web listing of bariatric surgeons specializing in
laperoscopy. However, the followin are all board-certified bariatric
surgeons. Given the increasing move to laperoscopy, one may assume
that most of them use both open and laperescopic surgical techniques.

The following are members of the American Society for Bariatric
Surgery
A general surgeon who is a diplomate of the American Board of Surgery,
Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, or of a Royal College of
Surgeons.

You might note that Hershey Medical Center has a concentration of
these doctors as does Cooper in Camden.

I have include some URLs that provide further information about some
of the physicians. You may wish to do a Google search by name for more
information.
