Bariatric surgery has a proven record of helping patients lose weight and keep it off. Many of our patients also found relief for many of the conditions associated with obesity including: type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and infertility.

Weight-loss surgery is an increasingly popular choice for significantly overweight men and women who want to lose weight and win the battle against the serious health risks associated with obesity.
