[July 08, 2013]  A free seminar, "Health Benefits of Weight Loss Surgery," will be presented at 5:30 p.m. on July 17 in the Steinfort Meeting Room at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital.

Orlando J. Icaza, M.D., F.A.C.S., a surgeon with Memorial's Medical Center's nationally accredited bariatric program, will discuss the health benefits of weight-loss surgery. Conditions like sleep apnea, heart disease and diabetes often go hand-in-hand with being significantly overweight. Dieting and exercise alone are not enough for some who struggle with obesity to attain a substantial weight loss and improve overall health.

Light refreshments will be provided.

To register, visit MemorialMedical.com or call Memorial's Healthline at 217-788-3333 by Friday, July 12.

ALMH is at 200 Stahlhut Drive in Lincoln.
