For people who are more than 100 pounds overweight and/or suffering from health problems related to obesity such as heart disease, diabetes, sleep apnea, joint disease or infertility a comprehensive approach is often the safest and most effective way to achieve substantial long-term weight loss. This includes medical, psychological, nutritional, surgical, diet and exercise solutions.

Our uniquely coordinated multidisciplinary approach to medical weight loss and bariatric surgery is centered around each patient to ensure the highest quality of care. What’s more, we’re recognized for safety and a history of positive patient outcomes.

We’re one of the only hospital-affiliated programs in the region to offer coordinated medical weight loss and bariatric surgery. 

Our bariatric options include: 

We also offer many services to help our patients achieve weight-loss success such as:
 
  • A dedicated and specially-trained bariatric surgery health care team of surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, technicians and facilitators
  • A patient navigator, who guides patients and families through the weight management process
  • A private pay gastric band package for laparoscopic adjustable gastric procedures

“I never thought my life could be this good. I put it off for years and years... Every single day, I decide to eat the right thing. Every day that I decide to go to the gym. I'm still doing the work, but my doctor gave me the tool that I needed to make it successful.”
