The Transition

One thing changed. Everything important didn't.

Here is the full picture — what is different and what is exactly the same as it has always been.

What Changed

The nameCMIBS is now Utah Surgery Group — clearer, more searchable, easier to share.
The websiteOur new home is utahsurgery.com — more patient tools, same team behind it.
The domainCMIBS.com redirects here. Bookmark utahsurgery.com going forward.

What Hasn't Changed

Your doctorsDr. Eakin and Dr. Beck — the same fellowship-trained surgeons you've always known.
Our locationSame West Jordan office. Same phone. Same staff faces you recognize.
MBSAQIP accreditationOur program continues to meet the highest national bariatric standards.
Insurance & recordsAll appointments, patient records, and insurance coverage are fully unaffected.
Our commitmentEvery decision — including this one — starts with what's best for patients.

Why We Made This Change

We did it for you.

"You deserve a practice that's easy to find, easy to remember, and easy to recommend to someone you love."

When patients needed us, some couldn't find us. An acronym — CMIBS — is hard to search, harder to spell, and nearly impossible to pass on by word of mouth.

Utah Surgery Group says exactly who we are and where we are — in three words. The name changed. The people you trust didn't.

Your chart transfers automatically. Your billing and insurance are uninterrupted. If you have any question at all, call us — same number as always.

Easier for patients to find us

Search "Utah Surgery Group" and find us immediately. Share our name without spelling out an acronym. This change was made for exactly that reason.

Your insurance still works here

We accept BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, United, SelectHealth, Medicaid, Medicare, Tricare, and more. We verify your coverage free before your first appointment.

More services, same standards

We now offer bariatric surgery, general surgery, hernia repair, and more. A bariatric-only name no longer captured everything we do for Utah patients.

The same team, always

Dr. Eakin and Dr. Beck built CMIBS on fellowship-trained, patient-first care. That commitment now has a better name and a wider reach.

Meet Your Surgeons

Same doctors. Same dedication.
