Welcome to the Bridges Center for Surgical Weight Loss website. The mission of the Bridges Center for Surgical Weight Loss is to liberate patients from the burdens of obesity. With our multi- disciplinary approach, we provide patients the tools they need to make a life-long commitment to their health. We take pride in our compassionate care and dedication to excellence in bariatrics.
Our center is designed to help weight loss surgery patients lose weight and keep it off. We go far beyond the weight loss surgery procedure by providing a life changing program that includes nutritional guidance, support groups, and long-term follow up. All of the weight loss procedures are performed by laparoscopic or minimally invasive technique. The procedures we offer include gastric bypass, adjustable gastric banding, sleeve gastrectomy,and revision operation.
At our center you will enjoy a team approach to your weight loss surgery treatment. Your weight loss surgery team consists of a bariatric surgeon, bariatric coordinator, diet and exercise counselor, and medical assistant. This team approach to your weight loss surgery procedure is specifically designed to maximize your long-term outcome. You will be accessing a bariatrics program that is tailored to your needs. This will include an empowering approach resulting in a new life and way of eating. You will attend an educational seminar and meetings with our weight loss surgery staff. Additionally, we will refer you to a psychologist who will provide an evaluation before weight loss surgery. This life altering experience returns the control of your weight to you. |
