Post-Bariatric Surgery Conditions

Bariatric, or gastric bypass surgery, is a surgical procedure that reduces the size of the stomach. It can be an effective weight loss approach for people if they follow post-surgery instructions carefully, but there are important health risks to consider.

Even patients who follow instructions carefully still find they have post-bariatric surgery conditions, including:

• Dumping syndrome
• Nutritional deficiencies

Our weight loss specialists will evaluate you for these conditions if you show symptoms of any of them post-bariatric surgery. Using different treatment methods, they will help you understand these conditions better and give you effective ways to manage them.
