Dr. Daniel Cottam, Weight Loss Surgeon at Salt Lake Regional Medical Center has performed the first single incision weight loss surgery in Utah. 

In October of 2008 Dr. Cottam became the first of a handful of surgeons in the United States to perform a Sleeve Gastrectomy for weight loss laparoscopically through a single incision port. This new technology allows surgeons to perform surgery with little scarring. The single incision port is placed through the umbilicus or belly button. Commonly laparoscopic weight loss surgery is performed by placing five ports in the abdomen. This revolutionary technique gives patients the ability to lose weight and the ability to show it off when they wear a bathing suit.
