Events
Patients benefit from our support group, nutrition counseling and intensive pre-operative education. They learn about making necessary lifestyle changes and begin a weight loss regimen before surgery occurs. Surgical candidates go through an extensive screening process to determine whether further dietary management is indicated before surgery. The decision to proceed to surgery is followed by months of pre-surgery education, nutrition guidance, counseling and other health services.
Our physicians are specifically trained to meet the needs of the surgical weight loss patient. Both Dr. Andrew Bright and Dr. Mathew Rawlins are board certified and are active members of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery. Their commitment to your care is demonstrated on a daily basis.
