Are you a candidate for weight loss surgery?

Weight loss surgery is a clinical treatment that can help improve your quality of life and overall health. Our weight loss surgery program combines significant weight loss with long-term improvement of weight-related health conditions, such as Type 2 diabetes, certain cancers, high blood pressure and heart disease.

You may be a candidate for weight loss surgery if you:

  1. Have a body mass index (BMI) greater than 40 or
  2. Have a BMI greater than 35, with at least one medical problem that is worsened by excessive weight.

Some examples of medical problems that are understood to be caused or worsened by excessive weight include:

  • Diabetes (Type 2, or insulin resistant)
  • High blood pressure (hypertension)
  • Obstructive sleep apnea
  • GERD (reflux disease)
  • High cholesterol, high lipids
  • Degeneration of the knees or other weight-bearing joints
  • Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
  • Infertility
