Weight Loss Surgery

The numbers of people choosing to undergo weight loss surgery are increasing each year. It is no longer a taboo subject and it's a procedure that is now more readily available.

Making the decision to have weight loss surgery is a very serious one and should only be made once you are fully informed of all the facts; the types of surgery available to help you achieve your final goal, a thorough understanding of those procedures, have a realistic expectation of the outcome and a hospital and fully qualified surgeon you can trust.

Answering to the following questions may help you decide whether weight loss surgery is the right option for you:

• Have difficulty losing weight or keeping weight off long-term after following weight loss diet and exercise?
• Fully discussed options available to you with your GP?
• Are determined to lose weight and improve your health?
• Are aware of how your life may change after the operation and the side effects?
• Understand the potential for serious complications, dietary restrictions, and occasional failures?

Weight loss surgery requires a high level of aftercare, with regular consultations, that is why at Surgery Worldwide we recommend you understand your full long term aftercare plan before choosing your surgeon or hospital.
