Phil Schauer - Bariatric Surgery, bigotry, future adventures and making a difference

Phil Schauer is one of the nations best known bariatric surgeons.

He spent many years and rose to fame in the world of metabolic surgery when in the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio before recently moving to Louisiana and the Pennington Research Institute where he continues to make a difference to patients with morbid obesity and metabolic syndrome.

In this discussion, he describes how Bariatric Surgery was the redheaded stepchild of Surgery for many years and suffered from bias and bigotry, as well as the refusal to accept that this was an actual disease process. Despite this, the number of bariatric procedures being performed continues to grow day by day with better and better outcomes.

In this wide ranging interview, Phil tells us about his early life in Texas stumbling into the world of MIS and learning from others around the world how to make an impact and improve the lives of many patients.

He's a true surgeon scientist with almost 400 peer reviewed publications and can't decide whether he prefers wine or beer. He's a big Beatles fan and would like to have dinner with Muhammad Ali.
