What is Bariatric Surgery?
Bariatric surgery is a medical procedure that helps people with obesity lose weight and improve their health. It is a safe and effective way to treat obesity.
Gastric Bypass
Gastric bypass is a surgical procedure that involves dividing the stomach and rerouting the small intestine to reduce food absorption.
Sleeve Gastrectomy
Sleeve gastrectomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing a portion of the stomach to create a smaller, more restrictive stomach.
Our team of experts will work with you to determine the best bariatric surgery for your needs.
Is This Right for Me? (FAQs)
Generally, candidates have a BMI of 40 or higher, or a BMI of 35-39.9 with obesity-related health conditions. They should also have attempted previous weight loss methods without long-term success.
The amount of weight lost depends on the type of bariatric surgery and the individual's starting weight. On average, patients can lose 60-70% of their excess body weight.
Recovery varies by individual, but most patients return to normal activities within 2-4 weeks. We provide comprehensive support throughout your recovery, including nutritional guidance and regular follow-ups.
Modern bariatric surgery is very safe when performed by experienced surgeons. Our facility maintains excellent safety records, and complications are rare. The health risks of remaining severely obese often outweigh the surgical risks.
Many insurance plans cover bariatric surgery when medically necessary. Our dedicated insurance specialists will work with you to verify your coverage and help maximize your benefits. We also offer various financing options to make treatment accessible.
You'll receive comprehensive support including regular check-ups, nutritional counseling, support group meetings, and access to our medical team. We're committed to your success and will be there every step of your weight loss journey.
