Brief summary
Clinical trial participation has historically been heavily biased toward specific demographics. Several people will be invited to enroll in this study so that it may collect a variety of data about gastric bypass clinical trial experiences and identify barriers to participation as well as the causes of participants' failure or withdrawal. The information collected from this study can be used to improve patient experience and outcomes for future patients and an opportunity to contribute to the advancement of medical knowledge and treatments for gastric bypass.
