Finally settling into the advanced pod of our new endoscopy unit. Feels very futuristic. Heavy lift for all, especially the fellows - past and present. Still miss the old rooms 4 and 5 a bit.. You can see the layout and write-up in EndoPro magazine! online.publicationprinters.com/html5/reader/p…

Finally, 10-year ESG and 10-year TORe data! Endoscopic suturing is durable and delivers solid weight loss in both primary and revision procedures. After a long time and massive effort by many people, it would seem these procedures are here to stay. #DDW2023 #obesity #GITwitter

Grateful to @JAMANetwork for publishing our cost-effectiveness analysis showing ESG provides greater #weightloss with cost savings compared to semaglutide for which the annual cost must be reduced 3-fold ($13,618 to $3591) to be cost-competitive. #GLP-1 jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…

Huge honor to give this year's #AmJGastro Lecture at #ACG2020. Grateful to be able to speak on a topic that's been important to me for many years - foregut endoscopic surgery. Journey from our early NOTES experience to present-day procedures and beyond. Hope to see you then!

Bariatric Endoscopic Antral Myotomy (BEAM) or B-POEM. Our pride and joy! The first time a myotomy alone has been shown to slow gastric emptying and to produce weight loss. No suturing required - a new paradigm in #obesity treatment. #DDW2023 #GITwitter

End of an era. @AuBonPain just closed its doors @BrighamWomens main lobby. We will miss it there and the excellent staff. Many fond memories with the fellows, daily tea time, and most of my work calories came from that place..

Check out my new @Forbes article highlighting the differences between available #weightloss strategies, including GLP-1 RA, Endoscopy, and Surgery. Safety, efficacy, and financial implications must all be considered. #obesity #ozempic #bariatricsurgery forbes.com/sites/christop…
