Morbid or severe obesity is a chronic condition that diet and exercise often fail to control. For these patients, particularly those with serious obesity-related health problems, bariatric surgery may be a great option. At Baylor Scott & White Surgical Hospital at Sherman, the Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery Program is led by a team of experienced surgeons. The program is supported by an outstanding multidisciplinary group of medical professionals including physician assistants, dietitians, nurse practitioners, and nurses.
The vast number of our weight-loss surgeries are performed using minimally invasive techniques, leading to a reduction in post-operative pain, fewer complications, shorter hospital stays, and a faster return to normal activity.
