About Us
As a result of our participation as a BLIS provider, we are able to participate in innovative new insurance coverage which allows us to make a commitment to our self-pay patients that should a covered complication occur within certain time frames following surgery, the costs associated with the care of that complication will be covered by BLIS alleviating the patient of financial obligation for costs associated with an unexpected event.
Your weight loss journey begins with our team of dedicated surgeons, nurses, dieticians, and personalized patient coordination.

Will weight loss surgery be successful for me?
Although weight loss surgery can be a beneficial tool, it is important to note that it will only be successful if you are motivated to make long-term lifestyle changes. If you are committed to making these changes, bariatric surgery can be a successful long-term solution. To determine if weight loss surgery is right for you, it is essential to schedule a consultation with a bariatric surgeon. During this consultation, your medical history, current health status, and weight loss goals will be assessed to determine the most suitable treatment plan for your individual needs. Remember, weight loss surgery is a life-changing decision, and proper evaluation and commitment are crucial to its success.
