Bariatric Weight Loss Services
Weight loss can be challenging for a variety of reasons. At Lutheran Hospital, the bariatric weight loss team understands. We want to help you lose weight, feel great and reduce your risk for serious medical conditions.
Lutheran Hospital's accredited bariatric surgery program provides education and support that begins before surgery and extends through recovery to help ensure individuals are set up for success. Patients are individually evaluated to determine which of the following procedures is most appropriate:
- Gastric bypass (Roux-en-Y)
- Sleeve gastrectomy
- Duodenal switch
- Single anastomosis duodeno-ileal (SAD-I) bypass
Although bariatric surgery has shown to be an effective tool in weight loss, it's important for patients to remember that surgery is only part of the process. A successful outcome is dependent on the patient's commitment to long-term lifestyle change.
To begin your journey towards a healthier lifestyle, call (260) 425-2800.
