OUR APPROACH

We believe that bariatric surgery is just the beginning of significant weight loss, and the main difference that separates this program from typical weight loss programs, is the focus on permanent lifestyle changes. The multidisciplinary team completely supports each patient through their weight loss journey. The journey can be challenging for patients who have failed in the past. For this reason, the program provides a Bariatric Patient Advocate to guide a patient through each step, and a nurse practitioner to coach each patient and provide accountability.

  • Bariatric surgery can improve your health in several ways. In addition to jumpstarting weight loss, surgery can also improve your metabolic health. You may not even need medication for conditions such as Type II Diabetes following the surgery.
  • Losing weight is difficult, but it is possible to get down to and maintain a healthy weight. Weight loss surgery can give you the kick-start you need to be successful.
  • You need a supportive network to maintain a healthy weight after surgery. By providing you with informative videos and other materials, we give you the education you need!

When you come to the MIIS Weight Loss Institute for a consultation, we’ll discuss your weight loss goals and help you determine which type of surgery would be most beneficial for you. MIIS offers a specific focus on patient experience and education through advanced technology, providing resources in print, surgical videos, and seminars to make sure patients understand every aspect of your planned procedure. Our board-certified surgeons will then provide you with the tools and strategies you need to reach and maintain your target weight. The MIIS Weight Loss Institute staff is extremely grateful and humbled to help others in such an important and meaningful way. We pride ourselves on our ability to listen to our patients and treat them like family. Each member of our team has one goal: to comfort our patients so each and every experience is as pleasant as possible. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we look forward to partnering with you to help you achieve your weight loss goals.
