Conditions and Services

Weight loss (bariatric) surgery includes a range of procedures designed to help individuals with obesity achieve lasting weight loss by altering the stomach and digestive tract. These surgical approaches limit food intake and nutrient absorption, offering a proven solution for those who have struggled to lose weight through diet and exercise alone.

Conditions we treat

We provide weight loss surgery for people diagnosed with obesity. Obesity contributes to several significant health risks, including death. People who have obesity are at an increased risk for many serious health conditions, such as:

  • Acid reflux (GERD)
  • Depression
  • Fertility issues
  • Heart disease
  • High blood pressure
  • Kidney, breast, colorectal, and endometrial cancer
  • Lung/respiratory disease
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Sleep apnea
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Urinary incontinence

Below are the options we offer:
