Does Dr. Joya hand stitch the sleeve after using the staples?
– Any and every Gastric Sleeve surgeon hand stitches behind the triple line of surgical titanium staples. There is only one staple gun that is used for the Gastric Bypass and Sleeve surgery and this is made by Johnson and Johnson. This device is used by Dr. Joya, who then hand stitches the sleeve behind the staples to help prevent leaks. ALL DOCTORS SHOULD STITCH BEHIND THE STAPLES.
