Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
What is bariatric surgery, and how does it help with weight loss?
Bariatric surgery is a procedure that alters the digestive system to promote weight loss, typically by reducing the stomach’s size or changing how the body absorbs nutrients. It can help individuals lose a significant amount of weight, improve health conditions related to obesity, and increase overall quality of life. Our LMC Healthcare Bariatric & Weight Management Program provides comprehensive preoperative and postoperative support to ensure long-term success.
What support does the Bariatric Program offer before surgery?
Our Preoperative Program includes personalized coaching from bariatric nutrition educators to help you prepare both mentally and physically for bariatric surgery. We focus on guiding you through necessary dietary adjustments, behavior changes, and emotional readiness to ensure you are fully prepared for the procedure.
What kind of support is available after bariatric surgery?
Our AfterCare Program offers continuous support for up to 5 years after your surgery. This includes virtual or in-person appointments with our bariatric nutrition educators, who will provide personalized advice, monitor your progress, and help you stay on track with your weight loss and healthy lifestyle. We also offer educational resources and access to workshops to ensure you have the tools needed for long-term success.
