Your Part­ner in Life-Chang­ing Care

We under­stand that obe­si­ty and meta­bol­ic dis­or­ders are com­plex, chron­ic con­di­tions that deserve indi­vid­u­al­ized treat­ment and ongo­ing sup­port. Our board-cer­ti­fied providers part­ner with you to achieve the best pos­si­ble out­comes for your unique situation.

Our com­pre­hen­sive approach address­es both your phys­i­cal and emo­tion­al well­be­ing, tack­ling every­thing from sig­nif­i­cant weight loss to meta­bol­ic con­di­tions like type 2 diabetes.

Advanced Sur­gi­cal Options

We spe­cial­ize in sleeve gas­trec­to­my, Roux-en‑Y gas­tric bypass, and duo­de­nal switch pro­ce­dures, all designed to help you achieve sig­nif­i­cant weight loss while improv­ing con­di­tions like dia­betes, high blood pres­sure, and sleep apnea.

Our sur­gi­cal team offers the most advanced min­i­mal­ly inva­sive pro­ce­dures, each tai­lored to your spe­cif­ic health goals. 

For patients who’ve had pre­vi­ous weight-loss surgery, we also offer revi­sion pro­ce­dures to opti­mize results, and our meta­bol­ic surgery options can be life-chang­ing for man­ag­ing type 2 dia­betes even with­out severe obesity.

When to Con­sid­er Bariatric Surgery 

Bariatric surgery might be con­sid­ered when weight man­age­ment through dietary changes, phys­i­cal activ­i­ty, or med­ica­tion has proven unsuc­cess­ful. Can­di­dates typ­i­cal­ly include those with a BMI exceed­ing 35, or indi­vid­u­als with a BMI between 30−34.9 who expe­ri­ence obe­si­ty-relat­ed health com­pli­ca­tions, such as: 

  • Dia­betes (Type 2)
  • Car­diac conditions
  • Ele­vat­ed blood pressure
  • Increased cho­les­terol levels
  • Breath­ing inter­rup­tions dur­ing sleep
  • Liv­er dis­ease unre­lat­ed to alco­hol consumption
