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.
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 preoperative process. If so, we are happy to direct you to our non-surgical weight loss specialists or work with your primary care provider to identify a plan that most impacts your overall health.
Physicians are board-certified general and bariatric surgeons who perform numerous weight loss surgeries annually. Our program is implemented by a multidisciplinary medical team including bariatric surgeons, a physician assistant, anesthesiologists, a psychologist, a program coordinator, medical weight loss specialists, a 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.
