Each day, a team of highly skilled surgeons, physicians, and nurses perform procedures to improve the quality of life for patients in our communities. These include life changing weight loss procedures performed by surgeons who carefully consider each patient’s needs to best determine whether a bariatric procedure may be right for them.
Our comprehensive program supports bariatric surgery as a tool for weight loss and provides a multidisciplinary approach to look at the problem of obesity as a disease state. We offer clinical support as well as a social network and support group which improve outcomes and long-term success.
