Bariatric Surgery Online Seminar

When diet and exercise have failed, weight loss surgery offers hope.

Did you know that being significantly overweight puts you at increased risk for cancer? That’s not all. If you’re carrying extra weight, you’re at risk for diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, sleep apnea, joint pain and infertility. Studies have shown that weight loss surgery can help people reverse their diabetes and improve a whole host of other conditions. It’s a safe, effective way to lose weight when nothing else works.


Bariatric surgery is designed for those with a body mass index (BMI) equal to or greater than 40, or equal to or greater than 35 with serious co-morbidities.
