Bariatric Surgery Options:

Severe obesity is a disease that, in the past several years, has become more widespread andhas grown to epidemic proportions. Obesity is not caused by a character defect, or a simple lackof will power, rather it’s a medical condition that affects almost 20 million Americans and hasbecome the greatest health care problem in the United States today. People with obesity are at agreater risk for co-morbid conditions such as:

  • Diabetes
  • High Blood Pressure
  • Sleep Apnea and
  • Heart Problems
Moreover, excess weight impacts your health, your self-esteem, and your relationships.

Diet and exercise are most often ineffective in cases of severe obesity. Chances are you’ve beendown that road before, tried “everything” and done the “yo-yo” dieting, which only hurts your body and increases your feelings of hopelessness. Each diet failure makes you feel like a failure, but there is hope.
