It can be a difficult topic to address, but our Bariatric & Metabolic Weight Loss Surgery team can provide care and guidance for you and your patient in their weight loss or surgery journey.
Consider our Bariatric & Metabolic Weight Loss Surgery Program
With nearly 70 percent of American adults overweight or obese, chances are you see many opportunities for conversations with patients about weight loss and healthier lifestyles.
It can be a difficult topic to address, but our Bariatric & Metabolic Weight Loss Surgery team can provide care and guidance for you and your patient in their weight loss or surgery journey. Bariatric surgery can increase life expectancies for those between 18 to 65 years old with a BMI that’s less than 55 for males, or less than 60 for females. And, all program resources can be easily accessed with a single point of contact.
Led by Jonathan Gipson, MD, FACS, our program is accredited by the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program.
