Severe obesity affects your health, your lifestyle and your ability to relate to others. Bariatric surgery is a highly successful long-term treatment for the problem of severe obesity, the associated diseases related to morbid obesity and the related issues of quality of life.
Weight Loss Surgery may be for you if your Body Mass Index or BMI is greater than 40 kg/m2 or if your BMI is more than 35 kg/m2 and you suffer from serious medical problems. If your BMI is less than 35 kg/m2 you are not a candidate for bariatric surgery at present time.
These operations used for weight loss provide you with a tool to increase your ability to lose weight and keep it off. Our goal is that with the help of surgery you will develop a new lifestyle necessary for successful weight loss. These lifestyle changes include maintaining a healthy diet and exercise program for life. Other contributors to success include attendance to support group meetings and long-term follow up with your physician. In addition, for the best results of surgery, it is very important to have a comprehensive medical, psychological, dietary and exercise evaluation and instruction before surgery.
