New Patient Weight Loss Consultation
When you visit our office for a new patient consultation you will spend time with your bariatric surgeon and your weight loss team and begin to build your personalized weight loss journey.
This first consultation is key to your overall weight loss success. During this visit:
- You will meet with your surgeon to discuss and review your health history.
- Your surgeon will explain the bariatric surgical options and will help you decide which one is right for you.
- The patient navigator will meet with you to discuss the requirements of our program, as well as, your health insurance plan in relation to bariatric surgery.
