For many people, diet and exercise are simply not enough to achieve the kind of weight loss they need. If your weight is endangering your health and preventing you from doing the things you love, weight loss surgery could be your path to a healthier and more active life.
Weight loss or bariatric surgery works by limiting the amount of food you can eat at one time. It permanently alters the digestive tract so weight loss doesn’t depend on restrictive diets or unrealistic exercise programs. There are several types of weight loss surgeries available and your care team will help you select the right option. They’ll guide your through every step of your journey from pre-surgery prep to post-surgery recovery and support.
