Support for You as a Whole Person
You can take advantage of a complete suite of wraparound services that include:
- Educational media
- Nutritional counseling
- Exercise coaching
- Mental and emotional health counseling
- Support groups
- Sleeve Procedure
During this procedure, we remove the part of your stomach that expands when you eat. This limits how much you can eat and helps you feel satisfied for a longer time after meals.
- Gastric Bypass
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass creates a new route for your food, using only part of your stomach and small intestine. You'll be less hungry and absorb fewer calories when you eat.
- Revision Surgery
If you already had weight-loss surgery, and you're not happy with the results, we can work with you to see if a redo or undo procedure would help.
