Weight-Loss Surgery (Bariatrics)

Bariatric surgery is a tool that, along with a lifestyle change, can be used for healthy living. The expert surgeons at our accredited Centers of Excellence are both passionate about and experienced at offering the latest, most effective weight-loss surgery procedures, including the gastric sleeve.

From the most-current, most-effective gastric sleeve procedure to revisional bariatric surgery, our expert team is able to help. Our staff works with each patient to create an individualized treatment plan to help achieve weight-loss goals.

If together we determine that weight-loss surgery is for you, our bariatric surgeons will discuss your surgical options. They will make recommendations based on your medical history, current health, body mass index (BMI), and other factors.

Those recommendations include:

• Gastric Sleeve: This procedure is the gold standard of care and is generally the most effective weight-loss surgery, with the fewest complications.
• Gastric Bypass: Done laparoscopically using small incisions, this bariatric surgery leads food to bypass a large portion of the small intestine.
• Gastric Banding: A silicone band is placed in the patient’s abdomen, then adjusted as needed; this weight-loss surgery is reversible.
