Congratulations on taking the first step towards Weight Loss
Surgery.
It's obvious to many people who have lived with morbid obesity for
years that the disease has a severe negative impact on quality of
life. Because of morbid obesity, you may choose not to participate
in certain activities. You may feel that you have limited career
choices.
What you may not know is that morbid obesity has been found to affect
the quality of your health and the length of your life.
Morbid obesity has been linked to several serious and life-threatening
diseases. These co-morbid conditions include type 2 diabetes , heart
disease, high blood pressure, acid reflux/GERD, and cancer. Most
of these conditions do not develop for years. So many people living
with morbid obesity may have one or more of these health issues
without even realizing it.
Our Bariatric Program is here to help you through every part of
your Weight Loss Journey.
