Dr. Verboonen integrates bariatric surgery with comprehensive preparation, post-operative care, support, and lifestyle management.
For the majority of patients who suffer from severe obesity, diet and exercise are often ineffective. These strategies usually lead to temporary weight loss, followed by rapid weight regain.
Results of Bariatric Surgery
Significant weight loss is the most well-known benefit of bariatric surgery. Typically, patients will lose 40% to 65% of excess body weight from surgery.
When combined with diet and exercise, bariatric surgery allows people to finally reach their goal weight and enjoy the improved quality of life that they deserve.
Weight loss surgery at The Center for Bariatrics also results in an increase in overall health. Many co-morbidities of obesity will be dramatically reduced after surgery, including:
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Cancer
- Cardiovascular Disease
- High Blood Pressure
- High Cholesterol
- Sleep Apnea
- Infertility
- Joint and Muscle Pain
Which Bariatric Surgery Procedure?
At The Center for Bariatrics, we offer a number of minimally invasive, laparoscopic weight loss surgeries. Each procedure is slightly different.
However, they all result in creating a smaller stomach. Bariatric surgery has been shown to be a highly effective cure for obesity and related diseases.
Dr. Sergio Verboonen can help you determine which weight loss surgery is best suited for you.
