Center for Bariatrics

In order to provide you the greatest chance of success, we have built a program that ensures active participation of our patients in their weight loss journey, which includes medical, nutritional, emotional, and exercise counseling. After surgery, we continue to support you to ensure positive results and ongoing healthy habits. This comprehensive approach is care is what truly sets us apart.

Multi-disciplinary Team

In addition to our dedicated team of bariatric surgeons, our bariatric surgery team includes cardiologists, gastroenterologists, pulmonologists, endocrinologists, surgeons, dietitians, exercise and behavioral health experts, all working together to develop a personalized care plan for you. This care plan includes extensive education and evaluation before surgery, and the lifetime follow-up care and support crucial to keeping the weight off and staying healthy.

Pre-Surgical Education and Support

For many of our patients their journey with us begins with attending one of our weekly seminars. Seminars provide patients with the chance to meet our physicians, ask questions and address concerns they may have about surgery, connect with other potential and former patients, and more.
