https://www.masjax.com At MASJax, we are proud to be leaders in minimally invasive and robotic procedures for weight loss, colorectal and general surgery. Many of our procedures are laparoscopic or utilize the daVinci® Robotic platform, meaning we can perform complex and delicate surgeries with minimal pain, through small incisions. Our patients have speedy recovery times and get back to their normal lives quickly with low risk of complications and minimal pain. We are dedicated to individual needs, goals, and healthy experiences by providing our patients with the information they need pre-surgery via our bariatric seminars and comprehensive consultations. Post-surgery care is equally important, and we work closely with our patients to enhance their recovery and have numerous support groups they can attend. With rigorous attention to detail and aftercare, our practice has become a trusted provider in not only Jacksonville but all of North Florida and Southern Georgia. We are committed to the highest quality of care both before and after surgery.

The biggest victories don't show up on the scale. 📉✨

True success means lowering your blood pressure, reversing metabolic disease, and gaining the freedom to move without pain. This transformation represents hard work, a powerful surgical tool, and a completely renewed lease on life!

A bandage doesn't do the healing – your body does. Don't accidentally get in its way.

Proper wound care is the foundation of a smooth, complication-free recovery. 🩹✨ To protect your healing tissue and ensure the best outcome, make sure you are following these essential steps:
- Follow your specific plan: Every surgery is different. Always follow the exact instructions your surgeon provided for your specific dressings, glue, stitches, or staples.
- Skip the soaking: Avoid baths, hot tubs, pools, and swimming entirely until your surgical team explicitly clears you, as sitting water can introduce harmful bacteria. 🚫🏊‍♂️
- Monitor daily: Check your incision regularly and call our team immediately if you notice concerning changes like spreading redness, sudden swelling, foul-smelling drainage, or a fever. 📞🏥

Leave the laxatives alone after surgery!

Bowel changes are common after anesthesia and pain meds, and waking up your digestive system after surgery takes a little time. Focus on steady hydration, easy walking, and reviewing your pain medications with your care team to help get things moving along safely. Always use surgeon-approved options before taking any over-the-counter remedies, and call our office immediately if you develop severe pain, vomiting, or an inability to pass gas!

Food changes may reduce symptoms, but they do not remove stones.

Switching to a lower-fat diet can definitely help minimize painful flare-ups from gallstones, but it won't make the underlying structural problem disappear. 🥑🚫 Existing gallstones and internal inflammation still require an expert medical evaluation and a definitive treatment plan.

Healing is a process, and not always linear.

Your surgical incisions will naturally change in appearance as they mature over time, and following your care instructions is the best way to ensure smooth healing. 🩹✨ However, you should always watch for warning signs that require a quick call to your care team. If you notice sudden redness, swelling, unusual drainage, a fever, or worsening pain, don't wait. Get it checked out to keep your recovery safely on track.
