We understand that losing weight and keeping it off is difficult. It not only harms your health, but your quality of life and the way you feel about yourself. Our clinic is on the forefront of providing metabolic surgery for fighting the diseases of diabetes and obesity.
"I'm off the diabetes medicine, off the cholesterol medicine, off the high blood pressure medicine. ... I am able to run and play with my grandkids, take walks with my wife ... water the flowers. I'm loving life now."
“As the weight has come off, I have been able to blossom into who God intended me to be. I walk around with way more confidence. There’s no more ‘I can’t,’ or ‘I won’t because I am too big. ... It is the best thing I have ever done for myself.”
You may be ready to begin your weight loss journey, but aren't yet ready to make a surgical step. Or, you may need a medically supervised weight loss program as part of the bariatric surgical counseling process. If so, we are happy to direct you to our non-surgical weight loss specialist or work with your regular PCP to identify a plan that most impacts your overall health.
Physician(s) are board-certified general surgeons who perform numerous bariatric surgeries annually. Our program is implemented by a multidisciplinary medical team including these surgeons, anesthesiologists, psychologist, program coordinator, dietitian, nursing staff and support staff. They work together to assess each patient's needs on an individual basis to help them achieve a healthier lifestyle.
