- About the Surgery
- Obesity is a chronic medical condition which if not addressed will have significant medical complications (co-morbid conditions). Bariatric surgeons consider morbid obesity a disease in and of itself. Surgical treatment would therefore be considered for patients who meet the definition for morbid obesity. Generally, the criteria for surgical weight loss procedures is a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 40 or greater or, BMI of 35 or greater if there are associated medical conditions that are related to obesity. Your genetics, internal hormonal imbalance, and learned eating habits are just some of the factors that must be considered when making a decision for surgical weight loss.
